Would it be a bad thing to have people's opinions? I guess you can't answer yes to that as you would be giving yours!
Maybe its not a good idea to start going on about it, but the point above still stands. You had to be able to give your opinion in the first place to say it! But I do know how internet threads can get.
Anyhow it is a complicated argument on ownership of a product vs. licencing. I initially felt very against the idea of someone presuming to say what I can do with what I own (heh good luck to me in this day and age) but then again, if it is a condition of sale - isn't that their choice?
I don't know if its worth discussing it here as you said, interesting anyway that the point of the discussion and whether it should be had at all both rest in similar areas (freedom).
