Softube Central is very much a "phone home" app!

This really interesting. I ran Softube Central to see if there were any updates and I see this:
It's odd because I checked and iLok License Manager sees my licenses and if I check PlugInfo, of course all my Softube plugs are still installed in my system. So on a hunch, I try to go to Softube's website. Yep. It's down. To make sure I check on downforeveryoneorjustme.com. Yep...
All I can conclude from this is that upon launch, Softube Central connects to Softube's server, and if it's not there it just plain gets stuck. I can understand not being able to show updates, but not even correctly reflecting installed plugins? Weird.
