GENERAL DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.
If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to
register. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration
while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With
registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the
software to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like commercial
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there
are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
can try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also.
Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
CDPlayer is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the user for
evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please do not give
it away altered or as part of another system. The essence of "user-supported"
software is to provide personal computer users with quality software without
high prices, and yet to provide incentive for programmers to continue to
develop new products. If you find this program useful and find that you are
using CDPlayer and continue to use CDPlayer after the 30 day trial period, you
must make a registration payment to Jupiter Software or one of its authorised
agents. The registration fee will license one copy for use on any one
computer at any one time. You must treat this software just like a book. An
example is that this software may be used by any number of people and may be
freely moved from one computer location to another, so long as there is no
possibility of it being used at one location while it's being used at another.
Just as a book cannot be read by two different persons at the same time.
Anyone distributing CDPlayer for any kind of remuneration must contact Jupiter
Software at the address below for authorization. This authorization will be
automatically granted to distributors recognized by the (ASP) as adhering to
its guidelines for shareware distributors and catalogue vendors, and such
distributors may begin offering CDPlayer immediately (However Jupiter Software
must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with the
latest version of CDPlayer.).
You are encouraged to pass a copy of CDPlayer along to your friends for
evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find that
they can use it. All registered users will receive a copy of the latest
version of the CDPlayer system.
ASP OMBUDSMAN STATEMENT
This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle
works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem with
an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The
ASP Ombudsman (OMB) can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP
member, but does not provide technical support for members' products. Please
write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442-9427 or send
a CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536. The OMB
may be contacted by FAX by sending to the ASP FAX number: (616) 788-2765. In
communication with the OMB please include a telephone and/or FAX number if
available.
