The recent drama has been resolved. For a week or so there was some uncertainty whether all new Bitwig devices would be part of the Studio edition and therefore covered with the cost of the update plan. Bitwig (the company) put out a paid add-on with new devices and announced that there would be other paid add-ons in the future. That caused a lot of negative responses in the community. After a week the Bitwig company apologized, made the add-on part of the regular Studio distribution and ensured that in the future all new devices would be part of the Studio - effectively no additional paid add-ons. The thing with the licensing server has been fixed. I tried that by turning off my router. No session closing and no data loss whatsoever. |

It's actually a different issue. If the servers are completely down, or inaccessible (blocked or you're actually offline) it uses the offline license check and works fine.
If you're online and the servers are online but having issues, like returning a status 504, your local license gets revoked. Even if you chose offline activation during installation it still tries the online activation method every few minutes. If there is a server response but it's not status=200 Bitwig considers it a failed license check. Offline activation checks will then no longer work until their servers give you a good response.
