What is a Software License
- End User Licensing Agreement
- It gives you permission
to use the software.
- You do not own the software.
- EULA (End
User Licensing Agreements) are different from license to license
and vendor to vendor
- The license and the
installation CDs may be two separate items
When it comes to software licensing, there are some main points to
remember
- 1 license = 1 computer
- Licenses are required for each computer, general rule but there
are some exceptions
- The 80/20 rule does not apply
- All Licenses are NOT the same
- License agreements from the same vendor will vary
- License conditions can change when you download software
- Licenses apply NOT ONLY to software but also apply to music,
sound files, pictures, fonts and even DLL files!
