[Fmpro] Compositions using "PD" Loops

[Rolin Mains]

is there such a thing as PD loops?  i thought you actually bought a  
"license" to use the loops...technically, the loop companies can  
"revoke" that license if they chose to do so since they actually own  
the rights to the loops.

just curious...
