Re: Adobe Elements 8 WARNING

I agree with both sides.
I think limiting its use is only fair otherwise people (like me) can just share software.
However they should be very clear and upfront about this - like a big label on the front of their box.

Re: Adobe Elements 8 WARNING

I will never agree with it though... it's like buying a CD and only being allowed to listen to it twice! You're only 'borrowing' the product. When I buy a product, be it software, CDs, DVDs etc - I expect to be able to use them as often as I like, on as many of my own computers as I want to.

And good luck with the whole ringing Adobe to get them to allow you another usage - if they're anything like the other companies that have done this in the past you'll not get anywhere.
