oracle gave them the software on a quasi-good-will and the client had no means to prove where they used or not used the software. The article calls it "a tricky to not pay oracle" which is idiotic and should read "lack of due diligence". i'm not defending oracle. i think everyone who signs with them deserve all that. but in contract law, they are pretty mundane, for that one case. Their IP lawsuits are another history.
