I still haven't had time to think about it yet. This is something I coded for my other extensions, I can share you the code so that you can add it to your Membership Pro installation if needed (I will see if I can help forking this code for you, just doesn't feel it is really needed for Membership Pro, can be some kind of ADD On or Plugins....)

Yes, it can be Add On (plugin).
I'm going to sell simple Joomla extension, so I need the Download ID which can be assigned to Domain. So, users will have ability to automatic update extension if Subscription is active.

Hi
As I mentioned before, this is actually out of scope of Membership Pro. How do you expect this feature to work? Just need to allow users to generate Download ID? Do you require each domain to use a a separate Download ID (for example, if one user purchases your product and use on multiple websites, do you need him to provide different Download ID for each site...) ?
Also, then how you will have download update.... ? Too many things need to think about and make decision and not easy to do this all in Membership Pro
Regards,
Tuan

How this feature works on your site?
When I purchased Membership Pro, system generated Download ID for 1 domain only or for my subscription?
How automatic updates works on my site?
Does your component check my Download ID to make me access for automatic updates?
I just think, so if Membership Pro is Joomla component, it is likely that it will be used to sell Joomla extensions too.

I actually use a different extension called Documents Seller to sell extensions, not Membership Pro. I uses it from beginning, before Membership Pro existed, and haven't switched to use subscription base model like in Membership Pro yet.
I customized some code in that extension to handle update. Here are some things which I implemented and use on our website:
1. One user can generate multiple Download IDs
2. One Download ID can only be used for one domain. That prevent someone to purchase the product, and share the Download ID for multiple users (unlimited usage). Of course if he wants to share Download ID to someone, he can generate an additional Download ID, but at least it prevent him from sharing to unlimited users
3. On our website, we sell multiple products. And one Download ID can be used for all products
With that said, we need to add some code to performing the following tasks:
1. Allow users to generate Download ID
2. Allow define update package for each document
3. Implement code to receive update request from Joomla and then process the download package
It is something not really simple, requires many code and I even think that we need a separate extension to handle that
I will try to see if I can develop something like that, but it will require few days of working (full time), so I am unsure I can provide it soon

I have to make it clear that it is something I cannot promise I can add support for. As I said, I am willing to share the code which I implement on our website so that you can implement it yourself if needed, so if you want, I can email the code (which is part of Documents Seller extension I customized on our website) so that you can fork it and implement it to your custom component
If I have enough time, I will try to implement it as a separate extension and share it for free to everyone
Will need to think about it all over again to see how to allow it integrate with custom extension (like someone can use Documents Seller for selling files, others can use Membership Pro Download Manager...)
Decision will be posted here sometime next week
