And lots more cases
(http://www.mysql.com/company/legal/licensing/opensource-license.html):
Free use for those who never copy, modify or distribute. As long as
you never distribute the MySQL Software in any way, you are free to
use it for powering your application, irrespective of whether your
application is under GPL license or not.
If you use it as part of a package, customers need a license. If your
offering an app over the web, I read in this that you don't.
