Native Instruments will also work with second hand buyers.

However for the most part I think Software Vendors have found that people who have bought the software second
hand, regardless of what services they extend to the new user, continue to buy second hand software and not
necessarily become a customer. As such extending upgrade paths and Tech support to these people is usually not
good for business.

Go to Google and search for' vst and linux' and come out with these results:

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=vst+and+linux&btnG=Google+Search&meta=

Specifically look at this: http://www.djcj.org/LAU/ladspavst/

They say vsts can run under linux using wine, but it looks like a major
pain to set up. I have used Linux for several years and have more than
enough technical skills, but I'd rather would rather spend my music
time recording with Cubase, Tracktion etc and vstis on Windows for now.
If all this could be done with one install they might have something.
But not yet for vsti use.
