[QUOTE="Hollywood, post: 1117106, member: 7408"] Yes, but that depends too on the license to the data. If the license does not give any stipulations, i.e. the PDFs for same from Wizards, then the user can pretty much use the data any way he sees fit for personal use, in any format he can convert it to, etc. If the license is a bit more restrictive, ala some of the digital rights based music files (which are a joke) then no, the user has only bought the rights to use the data for x amount of time, or in x number of formats on x platforms. So if the datapacks are bought by the user with a liberal license then the user can pretty much use the data with anything thats able to read and manipulate it. If the license says that this data is only available to be used in program x and y, then the user would be in violation of the license if used in program z. Frankly if the license is restricted to x and y, then I hope no one buys it. But then again I would hope no one would buy bad products, of any sort, but people still do. [/QUOTE]
