I echo francios' sentiment.  Lock-in happens only after viral adoption.  There 
are of course revenue models other than retail purchase of tool license.  It 
would be entirely possible to give the product away, and charge only a 
percentage of a user's income as a result of said tool.  There are tracking and 
enforcement issues with such a model, but good will and easy uptake by 
potential paying customers becomes more benevolent and reasonable.  Trust is a 
valid way to approach one's customers.  When I was in university, there was a 
bookshop in the local town without employees.  Just a box at the front door.  
If you found a book you wanted, you wrote the name of the book on an envelope, 
put cash in that envelope, and dropped it into the slot on the top of the box 
as you left.  They said these was far less than theft in other book stores.  
People like to be trusted.

Randall:

This thread is about whether or not password protection should be disabled for RevMedia 4 stacks.

What is your point relative to that subject?
