Question:
Could you point me to any resources for implementing license file copy protection for apps (specifically Mac apps) like you use in Reaper?

hmm if I were you I'd use something like https://github.com/libecc/libecc, and then have a signed thing which means "I'm licensed." but just to be clear, reaper doesn't have copy protection per se, just a legitimately-licensed indicator.

Thank you for that. Quick follow-up question, what are your thoughts on mac app store? For an audio utility type app in the $10-15 range, would you say it's worth putting it up on the mac app store, or is selling directly the better option (in your opinion)?

I have no experience with it so no opinion, but for us it wouldn't make much sense. For one, iirc mac app store apps all have to be sandboxed, which is just a hard no.
