It is a compromise between satisfying users and satisfying our own needs. The problem we had to solve was this: How do we allow you reasonable flexibility in installing on your home machines and perhaps your office machine, but still get paid.
We could charge $25 for every computer you installed on. We don't. We allow you to install it on multiple machines with a single license key, provided you do it within 14 days.
You can have a new license key generated anytime you want, up to 6 times per year.
I've said before, that if we find that more than a few people can't reasonably do this, we will raise the number of annual restores.
As HTH says, we've beaten this horse for a while several times before. I ask that you give us a break, believe that we have your interests in mind, and won't try to pull a fast one on you.
