- <>@6WHAT EXACTLY IS LICENCEWARE?
- ============================@4
-
- It is for customers who are sick of
- paying up to £2 for a PD disk only to
- find it is a DEMO version. For a
- little more money Licenceware gives
- you THE FULL VERSIONS of the best
- software currently available.
- Licenceware is NOT Public Domain. It
- is copyright the author and you must
- not copy or give it to anyone else as
- this is illegal and can lead to
- prosecution. If you copy and give
- away or sell Licenceware then you are
- breaking the copyright laws of
- this country. You are in-effect
- stealing from the author.
-
- Every time you buy an F1 Licenceware
- product the author of that product
- will receive a royalty, 25% of the
- retail price.
- Licenceware is a lot cheaper than its
- commercial equivelent because it does
- not come in fancy boxes or with
- printed manuals (usually). F1 are
- changing all this though, see F1
- GOLD.
- @1
- EVERY F1 DISK YOU BUY SHOULD HAVE THE
- OFFICIAL F1 BLUE AND WHITE LABEL ON
- IT, IF NOT, PLEASE REPORT THIS TO F1
- IMMEADIATELY, STATING WHEN AND WHERE
- YOU BOUGHT IT, IN STRICTEST
- CONFIDENCE.@4
- @3
- P.S Some Amiga magazines are driving
- us crazy by calling Licenceware, P.D,
- it IS NOT, the mags are using the
- term P.D in a very generalised sense.
- So much so that beginners/newcomers
- to computing find it very confusing.
- @2
- All of our products are exclusive to
- F1 and our distributers, you cannot
- legally buy it anywhere else.
