No, I think protecting software in any way is a waste if resources,
especially software you plan to sell to someone.  Prohibiting the
buyer from making changes to software they purchased has zero gains
for anyone involved.

If I did want to protect some software I wrote, and I was willing to
pay money to do so, I would want to use something much more capable
than the Zend Encoder.  In principle I'd at least want something that
costs less than it's equivalent decoder.
