Legal to sell old FC studio stuff?
Posted by Kent Beeson on October 3, 2009 at 2:58 amSo can I sell my FC studio 2 box with all things in it if I’ve upgraded to FC Studio 3? Is there a license problem in selling my FC studio 2 items?
Thanks

If you purchased the upgrade package of FCS3 you cannot legally sell FCS2 to another user. On the other hand, if you purchased the full FCS3 package, not the upgrade, you could.
Does this make sense?

in the moment you sell the FCS2 you are not legally entitled to use the upgrade.

Thanks

if you upgrade, you can not consider your FC2 as old stuff. is just a piece of FCS3.
Apart, the guy who will buy it won’t have the right to upgrade.

If you need the dough and want to do something illegal to get it, just go rob a bank. It’s much more lucrative than selling your old Apple software, and what’s the worst that could happen anyway? So, you get caught and get sentenced to 20-years… Big deal, you’ll probably only have to do 10 of those years, and you’ll probably have a hot date every night for the entire duration. His name might be Big Bubba or something like that, but he’ll probably treat you really well.

During which time the government will provide you with free health care. So it’s win-win!
