The "Family Tree Maker" software works with you to create your tree. Every 100 entries you make into the tree kicks off a message asking you to upload your tree to their servers to become part of the World Family Tree (which they then put on to CD's to resell to other program owners, and add to their website for access via subscription.)

I don't understand what " The downside: The software is routinely after you to 'upload' your tree to their servers so they can resell your information." means.
How do you upload a tree without having the software to create it with?
