- SHAREWARE
- (Updated 2/27/94)
-
-
- Shareware programs are copyrighted, freely redistributable programs which
- the developer has requested a payment for his work if the program is used
- past a specified trial period. It is a true "try before you buy" offer.
- Many of the programs distributed this way rival their commercial
- counterparts in both quality and usefulness.
-
- It is important to keep in mind that money paid for this disk applies only
- to the cost of the creation and distribution of this disk. Generally, none
- of the people involved in this process pass on any portion of the money
- they receive to the authors of the programs contained on the disk. This
- CD-ROM is only a distribution medium, in the same sense as a BBS system,
- publicly accessible Internet systems, or other means of distributing
- freely redistributable software. By purchasing this disk you have not
- acquired ownership of any of the software hereon.
-
- Authors of Shareware programs depend on the honesty of the users of these
- programs for compensation their work. If the developer of a program has
- requested payment for his work you are strongly urged to send in the
- payment as promptly as possible if you use the program beyond the initial
- specified trial period. Your support for this type software distribution
- is essential if the Shareware dream is to remain alive. Please do your
- part and pay the authors for the programs you use, if such payment is
- requested.
-
- If the author of a Shareware program objects to it's inclusion in this
- CD-ROM library, he or she simply needs to contact me and I'll remove it
- from all future versions of the CD-ROM distribution.
