Legal side

Hello,

I seen this in the license of some from dmxzone
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Use of EXTENSION requires one license per developer. Licenses are non-transferable between developers. For instance, if a company has two developers that will use the EXTENSION, then that company requires two licenses. This is the case even if the developers will not be working with the EXTENSION at the same time or a project is transferred from one developer to another.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

My question is,
What can you make of the above, If I were to create a site and was no longer around, the people I built the site for needed a page manipulated, what ever code the extension provided was not manipulated or touched, does the above mean that the new persons doing anything to a site I created in the past would have to purchase an extension from dmxzone. before they were allowed to manipulate a page of that site.

I am confused with the word play.

regards

kenny

Ignoring a specific product and how lawyers can bankrupt the company who hired them,

The basic rule is one purchase allows anyone to play - once. So you/we cannot by one copy and use it everywhere. By same token we cannot be denied use of it once purchased, no EULA saying 'click to agree' is even enforceable where it also means you cannot install.

A new twist was to enforce one piece of software to remian only for single othe piece of software, single piece of hardware and single user of it all. This is also unworkable as part get upgraded. Whatever others claim their lawyers can do, products that are purchased are transferable.
