Ioncube has online encoding per file, generally 50 cents US$ per file.
Ive been using it as of late to encrypt distributed scripts to ensure
they arent edited as they work in a peer to peer system.
They also have a test mode where it encrypts and expires in 8 hours which
you can use for free to test it out. IMO this is the way to go, allows
small indie developers like myself to reap the benefits of encoding
without raping my wallet.
