IANAL, but you're in dangerous legal territory if you charge two groups of people different amounts for the same product. Either make it a different license off

IANAL, but you're in dangerous legal territory if you charge two groups of people different amounts for the same product. Either make it a different license offering, or make sure you're not discriminating against either group. :)
You really can't figure out a price point in a scientific way (sample and control)... you just have to adjust it organically and see.
- ryanwaggoner 17y agoI love how you state that you're not a lawyer then present definitive legal advice. How is charging different amounts to different people "dangerous legal territory"? Companies do this all the time...think about all the transactions where the price is haggled back and forth, or companies offering a special discount to startups or nonprofits, or offering specials on certain days of the week, etc. Unless you're segmenting your groups by some protected status, like gender or religion, I don't see how it's a legal matter at all. But mostly I'd like to hear why you know that it is.
