Indexing unlocked only or locked too?

As I await the DVD on my main machine, I just considered that I have almost every resource downloaded, including hundreds (thousands?) of locked resources. Does the indexing index ALL of them? or just the unlocked?

I have a lot of locked resources too. As far as I can tell, Logos 4 doesn't recognize them. I asked if that was going to be a permanent feature, but got no answer which makes me think it probably will be.

Logos 4 only deals with unlocked resources. It ignores locked resources.

In logos 3 I was able to search against locked resources. (and maybe determine if I wanted to buy them to read the results).

Will I be able to do that in Version 4?

I'm sorry, but no. Logos 4 ignores locked resources completely. They generated far too much confusion, and with our new "index everything" we don't want the complexity of all those locked books included, then filtered out, and reindexing when new locked books arrive on CD's, etc.

Moreover, the system will be managing your resources itself, ensuring you have the latest version, and we wouldn't wnat it wasting bandwidth updating (and reindexing) books you might never purchase.

I can understand that and am actually glad for it. It does loss a little bit of functionality but I'd rather not have them cluttering things up. Also I am very happy to hear that Libronix will keep all my files up-to-date automatically!

My bandwidth is not measured, but what about those who pay after they go over their limit? How about giving the option to turn the auto update off. And what happens if you lose connectivity and have to shut down before regaining connectivity. Loss of power supply should also be considered.
