        Software licenses
        Open Sound System is not freeware but commercial product. The
        software itself is freely downloadable from our web site.
        However it needs a run time license to work. The software
        package itself contains a time limited evaluation license which
        installs automatically. To remove the time limit you will need
        to purchase a permanent license from our web site or any of our
        official distributors.
