hm - I can't find this 500MB threshold in the ECW Image Compression SDK Source Code licence (version 3.3): http://www.ermapper.com/Downloads.aspx?v=315 maybe this did change recently? However, the licence, makes clear that governmental use is commercial use, which means I'd have to buy a licence anyway. In this case I'd probably better stay with the ERDAS img format and spend the money for bigger harddisks. Alternatively, I may get bigtiff support up and running.
