Pirate to try it, but if you like it and continue using it, buy it. Originally Posted by AntBoy Last edited by NoService; at AM.

NS I agree about most software demos being too light with available features, but the only difference between the demo and full version of OziCE is the watermark and 20 minute limit. That's more than enough to decide whether the program is right for you or not.
I like your thinking NS, I'm thinking of buying a new car, but the 10 minute test drive isn't enough to make an informed decision on buying it. Maybe I'll just look for someone handing out the keys and pinch it for the week. If I like it I'll buy it, if not I'll just leave it on the side of the road, no harm no foul.
After all, a drive around the block isn't good enough. I want to see how it goes on a trip to Perth and back! Sounds good, but the problem is, the guy helping me out with an extended test drive also gave keys to people who have no intention of buying the car or bringing it back! The analogy doesn't fail, but the engineer does! If you strike up a deal to get an extended demo that's great. But I'm talking about someone else handing over the keys for you to just take it! If you were freely handing out keys to cars, how many people do you think would take it for a quick spin and not just keep it?
If you've already got it and don't have to give it back, why pay for it? That's all I meant about distributing a working license with each release of the software, it doesn't help with the "try then buy" idea.
It just helps those who have no intention of buying it to get their old copy updated.
