You stated earlier that you'll gonna make TL available via ftp.
As the whole stuff is most probably under GPL anyway you have
that problem everywhere.....

In fact, what you are living on is that downloading the contents
of a few CD's is more expensive than buying them - and this also
applies to China. So the above problem may apply to the
manufacturers of payware - but it won't touch you at all, I
guess.
