Subject: Qoole CD. Whats this restrictive license agreement???

 Just received my Qoole CD rom! Looks great, package is great. Went
to install - Surprise! There has been a restrictive license agreement
added to the CD!

> 2.  Commercial use is prohibited.  Work created using the SOFTWARE
> may not be used for commercial purposes, including but not limited
> to, level compilations and other game products sold for profit,
> without a seperate prior license agreement from LITHIUM.

Imagine my surprise at this added bit. Whats up with this? I can't make
levels, using my own textures, my own prefabs, my own entities with
your editor for my game without another license?

What would make you put this there?

Imagine the disdain people would have if microsoft had put this kind of
thing
into word. Or if Nissan included it with their trucks. Or sears craftsmen
tools:
"Commercial use of this wrench is prohibited".

Please remove this ill-conceived licensing agreement from an otherwise
fine product.

Best regards,
