I am missing the 'No EULA' option.
In the software, the No EULA scenario is presented as impossible. People claim that this would allow anyone to do unlimited copying.
But selling e.g. books works just fine without them. The governement still makes unlimited copying illigal.
So the EULA serves other, more nefarious purposes, e.g. Limiting warranties and taking away rights.
I am not against licensing. Between 2 businesses, there might be enough negotiating power to make them usefull. But confronting the average consumer with complicated legal frameworks should never have been allowed, as there is no way they have enough negotiating power.
