If you go to Sony and look up Sony LF-V30 it will show where to download the software - the reason I explain this is that Sony wrote you can use the software with out the Serial Key. Yet 30 days later it will expect it or refuse you service. Therefore its important for you to know how big a misunderstanding that is. I am a eyewitness to the problem.
