That's true. But sometimes they'll send the Oracle Gestapo after you to perform an audit. That happened to me one time after I spent $100 on the demo CDs.

The Oracle rep I was assigned to remembers me for the voice mail I left her which, IIRC, included some references to "corporate fascism" and "proletariat revolution."

I guess if I had downloaded it for free and then deployed without telling them I would have been cool...
