Shareware is a marketing method, not a type of software or even strictly just a distribution method. When software is marketed through normal retail channels, you are forced to pay for the product before you've even seen it. The shareware marketing method lets you try a program before you buy it. Since you've tried the program, you know whether it will meet your needs before you pay for it. A shareware program is just like a program you find in major stores, catalogs, and other places where software is purchased; except you get to use it, on your own computer, before paying for it.

Basically, for the same reason you should pay for any program: because it is the honest thing to do. Shareware is commercial software, fully protected by copyright laws. Like other business owners, shareware authors expect to earn money for making their software available. In addition, by paying you may then be entitled to additional functions, removal of time limiting or limits on use, removal of so-called "nag" screens, and other things as defined in the documentation provided by the program's author.

That's simple: just stop using it and remove it from your computer system. Many shareware authors even provide a simple "uninstall" feature that makes this easy. You've lost nothing but the small cost of obtaining the evaluation version and the time involved in the evaluation.

The registration is a getting a regID key (an access code) gives you the right to use the program after the 30-day trial period, receive technical support and use features available only for registered users, too.

The regID key is an access code that will remove the applet limitations and gives you rights to use legal registered applet family. Each domain name has its an own regID key.


Which BS applet family will the regID key unlock?
You can only unlock the registered applet family and all next upgrates of the applet family for the registered domain. For example if you have a regID key for BS Photo Album Family your key will work with BS Photo Album Family only on the registered domain.

How many times can I use Photo Album applet on my site with this regID key?
You can use our applets how many times you wish on your site. It is free of charge. But any regID key will work only for the registered applet family hosted under the domain name you registered.

Can I use the same regID key if I change my domain name or move my site on other domain?
No, you should make a new registration for the new domain name. This is done for simplicity and to reduce the frauds.
