Bill,

I'll be interested in hearing what they say. I know you and I think alike in many ways. Am having trouble understanding your not being able wrap yourself around the idea of the person who payed for the demo "owning" the demo.

ie You might pay $600 or more for a demo. That's THEIR $$$ to keep no matter what happens thereafter. They were paid for a service rendered. Let's say you hire a a landscaper to renovate your lawn. He does a jam up job and eventually it wins awards which lead to some $$$. Is that landscaper entitled to more compensation? No, but he sure as heck is gonna get a TON more business if you acknowledge he did the work.

I should think a demo is no different. Think about the number of demos done...say annually. Probably tens of thousands. How many lead to a record deal??? Maybe .0001 per cent? The odds against you (the one paying for the demo) scoring with it are infinitesimal. The odds of the demo itself making mega bucks are virtually non-existent.

That's how I see it, but well see what someone who actually KNOWS has to say. smile
