Yes, that is definately getting a little out of hand. And, yes, that would
be breaking the license. You know, the HL license isn't that much different
than many other software licenses. Even Borland wrote their licenses for
many, many years to read something like "treat the use of this software
'like a book' in that you purchase a book and can't and shouldn't duplicate
the book in its entirety for use elsewhere". I'm sure a few of the list
lawyers could expand a little more.
So, if you have a problem with this license, I'm sure that you'll have
problems with most others. You don't happen to run a warez site now, do
you?
