On: FileZilla Pro "Perpetual License" – A Warning to All Users

Why not? VMs can be given access to the host file systems.

Do you sell vms or something? It's absurd to even consider running an entire os in a vm just to use the calculator or the notepad.

The only time it's worthwhile is when you pay thousands of dollars for a license, and don't want to spend on an annual maintenance contract. For example, I've got a ~10 year old IDA Pro license server in an Ubuntu 16.04 VM.
