Didn't mean it to come off that way...I just had a hunch that YT 
didn't intend for this, and that someone in the group would jump 
on this pretty fast (knowing all the creative energy on this group 
with regardings to programming free stuff on the Internet!)

Good or bad thing is debatable, (I can totally relate to both sides, 
as an EXS user and as a manufacturer too), but you guys are 
correct that there is nothing illegal about it.....it just is not at all 
how YT intended it to be used, so reprogramming their stuff is 
not why they gave away the trial versions.

It's pretty hard to restrict how people use a "free gift" like this on 
the internet.....especially when the data can easily be 
reprogrammed like this....I'm not even sure what license 
agreements would even hold up when you give it away. I think 
you would have to expressly agree to certain things before you 
downloaded the files.....but still, it's a very gray area.

Interesting stuff!
