Pirates of the Californian

Can you imagine buying a music CD, playing it in your car on the way home - only to be told at home that it has already been used once in your car and you now have to buy another copy for the house?

What's the difference here? How can software companies sell computer programs as a "license fee" for one computer only, and get away with it. The music industry are also effectively selling you a license to hear the music aren't they?

The very expensive graphics software we use can be installed on one computer only, with a "concession" that you can also put it on one laptop BUT you cannot have them running at the same time!

Oh well that's my moan for the day. It's "Good Friday" and it's raining out there. Good huh? Tee hee! Have a nice Easter everyone.
