Interesting link, so now a PRO user can install BSPlayer only on 3 computers ?

Nothing really new I'm afraid. I also think the word "only" is not entirely appropriate. On how many PC's are you allowed to install Windows on one licence?

What I wanted to say is that this information was not new to me as I had seen/read it a while ago already and further, that it is rather common that licence-conditions limit the number of PC's (often only one) on which a product may be installed and used (mostly by the same user).
[This - of course - not taking into consideration multi-licence packages]

And what I wanted to say was that a member of BSPlayer's team stated not long ago that a PRO license grant the user the right to install the software on an unlimited number of computers. Now it seems that this thing has changed, isn't it ? The licensing policy changed with ver 2.20 from 24.04.2007.

LE: please split this topic, we are getting way offline in here.

Yes, I'm not arguing that; I just mentioned ("Nothing really new I'm afraid") that it was no real news to me when you mentioned it.

(I already intended to split these off-topic posts)

@adicoto: Updated post (http://bsplayer.com/forum/viewtopic....icence+license ) check also:

If you are still interested about my license for Vista, please tell me, I will send you, only on PM, the licenses I do have. I was wrong, indeed, it's not for 2 computers, it's for a larger number.

Don't worry Peter, you were right all the time, as usual.

Normally, with Microsoft Vista you can use 1 regular license on 1 computer.

Don't worry: I didn't and won't worry. The only thing that annoys me, is that I wrote licence instead of license. :oops:
