Isn't this just plain illegal? Since I assume you only once bought
Finale full, and then bought upgrades, you still only have one serial
number. Although you are obviously permitted to run as many different
versions of Finale as you own, I doubt very much that you can give away
an early version of Finale without a separate serial number.

Sharing it with another Finale user who ALSO has a legally purchased
license wouldn't be illegal. That person has paid for and is
legitimately allowed to use Finale, too.
Besides, the offer was for someone who was interested in having the
earlier version for historical interest. I doubt anybody on this list
is actually interested in beginning to work with such an earlier version.
But the legality of one licensed owner sharing the original disks from
an earlier version with another licensed owner shouldn't be an issue.
Now if Andrew were to give them to someone who isn't already a user,
THAT would be illegal, but it's also something I'm sure Andrew wouldn't
even consider doing.
