FIRST, THE NO-NONSENSE VERSION OF THE FEEDDEMON END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (EULA):
If you're using the trial version of FeedDemon, you may use it for free until it expires. After that time, you need to either purchase FeedDemon or remove it from your computer. If you purchase FeedDemon, then you may install it on one or more computers, provided that you're the only one using it.
I rely on software sales to feed my family, so you're not permitted to "crack" the trial version of FeedDemon in order to avoid paying for it, nor are you permitted to share the registered version of FeedDemon with others after you purchase it.
NOW THE LEGAL VERSION OF THE EULA:
As part of the installation process, you will be asked to accept the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement is a legal contract that specifies the terms of the license and warranty limitation between you and Bradbury Software for the FeedDemon software and related documentation. You should carefully read the following terms and conditions before installing or using the software. Unless you have entered into a separate written license agreement with Bradbury Software providing otherwise, installation or use of the software indicates your agreement to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, promptly delete and destroy all copies of the software and related documentation in your possession. Upon your certification to Bradbury Software that you have not used the software you do not accept this license agreement and have deleted and destroyed all copies of the software and related documentation, your money will be refunded.
Bradbury Software's willingness to license you the software is expressly conditioned on your acceptance of all of the terms of this Software License Agreement.
Versions of the Software
The FeedDemon software is available in a commercial and an evaluation version. Both the commercial and the evaluation versions are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The commercial version of the software requires payment by you of a license fee. The evaluation version of the software is the only version that is provided without charge. The evaluation version is not free software and is subject to the restrictions set forth below.
UPON ORDERING, DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING OR UNENCRYPTING ANY VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE, YOU ARE REAFFIRMING THAT YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.
License to Use
One copy of the FeedDemon software may either be used (1) by a single person who uses the software personally on one or more computers, or (2) by multiple people non-simultaneously on a single workstation, but not both.
You may access the commercial version of FeedDemon through a network, provided that you are the only person who may use the software or you have obtained individual licenses for the software covering all workstations that will access the software through the network. For instance, if eight different workstations will access FeedDemon on the network, each workstation must have its own license, regardless of whether the workstation access the software at different times or concurrently.
The software and documentation are protected by the copyright laws of the United States and international treaty provisions. There are severe penalties, both civil and criminal, for copyright infringement. You may not copy all or any part of the software or related documentation, except that you may make a reasonable number of copies of the software solely for backup or archival purposes.
Multiple Media and Upgrades
You may receive the software and related documentation in more than one medium. Regardless of the number of media you receive, you may use only the medium that is appropriate for the workstation on which the software is to be installed. You may not install, use or transfer the other media, except as part of a permanent transfer of your licensed copy of the software and related documentation as set forth below.
If the software and related documentation are provided as an upgrade, patch or update to an earlier licensed release of the software, then you must have a valid license to operate such earlier release of the same version as the upgrade to install or use the upgrade. All software being upgraded is deemed to be part of the software and is subject to this Agreement. You may transfer an upgrade only in conjunction and together with the licensed software being upgraded.
No Additional Licenses
You acknowledge and agree that except for the rights granted in this Agreement, all other rights, and all title and interest in and to the FeedDemon software (as an independent work and as an underlying work serving as a basis for any application you may develop) and related documentation remain the sole and exclusive property of Bradbury Software, including all patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark and other proprietary rights therein, and that you will not derive or assert any title or interest in or to such software or related documentation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you do not receive any rights to any patents, copyrights, trademarks rights to the software or related documentation. You may not decompile, disassemble or reverse engineer the FeedDemon software. You may not remove or alter any trademark, logo, copyright or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols or labels in the software.
This Agreement does not authorize you to use Bradbury Software's name or any of its trademarks.
Transfer
Subject to the transferee's agreement in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, you may permanently transfer all of your rights under this Agreement by transferring all media, all upgrades and all related documentation together with this Agreement. You may retain no copies of the software or related documentation. If the software and related documentation is an upgrade to an earlier licensed release of the software, any transfer must include all prior releases of the software and documentation.
Term and Termination
If you have acquired an evaluation version, the license granted herein shall automatically terminate thirty (30) days after you first install such version. Subsequent downloads, installations or use of the evaluation version by or for you will not extend, renew, or otherwise restart the term of the license. The license granted for the commercial version will continue until it is terminated. Bradbury Software may terminate any license granted herein if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement. Upon the termination of a license for any reason, you must promptly return to Bradbury Software or destroy all copies of the software and related documentation covered by the license.
Warranty and Remedies
BRADBURY SOFTWARE PROVIDES NO REMEDIES OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, FOR THE EVALUATION VERSION. THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION ACCOMPANYING THE EVALUATION VERSION ARE PROVIDED "AS IS."
For the commercial version, Bradbury Software warrants that the physical media and the documentation will be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use for 90 days from the date of delivery to you. Bradbury Software also warrants that the commercial version will be free from significant defects that prevent the software from performing substantially in the manner described in the user manual for a period of 90 days from the date of delivery to you. At Bradbury Software's option, Bradbury Software's sole responsibility shall be (i) to replace defective media or documentation, as the case may be, (ii) to use reasonable efforts to correct significant defects in the software without charge, or (iii) to refund the licensee fee paid to Bradbury Software for the applicable copy of the software and terminate all licenses granted to you for such copy. Any replacement software will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or 30 days, whichever is longer.

You assume all risks of such data loss or corruption; the warranties provided in this Agreement do not cover any damages or losses resulting from data loss or corruption.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES SO THE WARRANTY LANGUAGE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASE, BRADBURY SOFTWARE'S LIABILITIES SHALL BE LIMITED BY THE PROVISION BELOW ENTITLED "LIMITATION ON LIABILITY."
Limitation on Liability
IN NO CASE SHALL BRADBURY SOFTWARE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS OR THE INABILITY TO USE EQUIPMENT OR ACCESS DATA, WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE BASED UPON A BREACH OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY. THIS IS TRUE EVEN IF BRADBURY SOFTWARE IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO CASE WILL BRADBURY SOFTWARE'S LIABILITY EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF THE LICENSE FEE ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO BRADBURY SOFTWARE.
