Default How do they keep you from putting it on more than 1 computer?

Ill try to make this clear. Can I DL it to my laptop where I recieve my log-in key and then use that key to use it on another computer? I not trying to steal it but I dont want my brother and I to both have to buy VAG-COM. Im in Chicago, hes in Flagstaff.

Default You can download it and install it as many times as you want.

You need the cable to connect to the car.

Default I can't remember since it's been a while, but doesn't the dongle in the cable enable all features?

We really should take this discussion to the VAG-COM forum instead of guessing.

there's no key to enter. It's physically in the cable
