In the past "freebie" versions did not save plugin-states, which has
lead a few users to loose plugin-settings when testing a new gratis
version. So the goal was to find a new restriction that does not
modify session-state and is an incentive for *most* users to support
ardour development financially.

If you can offer a better solution and provide data or experience to
confirm that it works to raise income, please don't hesitate to
enlighten us. It'd be sad if ardour development would grind to a halt
because the lead-developer can't eat.

Adding this 10 (+ 5 + 2.5 + ..) minute countdown took about 3 mins of
coding. Compare that to whipping up a payment system incl VAT +
international transfers, subscriptions etc etc.. Heck, even paypal
barely manages to do that after 15 years.

Ardour4 is already available in debian. `sudo apt-get build-dep
ardour4` is a lot easier if you want to build your own.
