With the amount of money that can be made with selling items (though there is one vendor who was recently gloating over buying 3DMax, a new car and having a holiday on the Florida keyes as a result of sales in an online store) there is every chance that eventually some lawyers are going to get involved. Why? Because money is an interesting little item that creates something I call bandwagon syndrome. Whether the profits are used to enjoy oneself or stay alive and pay bills is immaterial. This is evident in the "if they can sell it I can" or the "hey there's a store.. I can make money." attitude that is evident from some people around the web - regardless of quality. So, because of the increasing number of vendors and customers, eventually some legal involvement is going to become necessary, that's just the way business works. This legal involvement may be in the drawing up of "official" documentation to cover sales and the uses to which a product can be put following those sales - both to protect the customer and vendor in the event of a conflict. It's rather too easy for people to suddenly "change their minds" and add a new clause to a "readme" agreement and claim it was there for "ages". Also there are other legal issues involved. There will come a time when someone feels severely affronted by having parted with money for something they perceive as "crap". At this point that person may decide on legal action using misrepresentation or one of the other advertising laws to their benefit. Then there will be the need for people conversent in Internet Laws and bylaws and other regulations governing the sale and purchase and marketing of items on the net. So yes, sooner or later the people making big money from the net, from stores like this one will be lawyers. Let's just hope that it's not for a long time yet. :) Sorry if I offend any vendors in the stores, this is not an attack on anyone in particular, just a few who produce garbage and try to fleece people with it. They know who they are, assuming any of them might visit this site and read this. Also it is because of things like that, and the situation that started this thread that makes the involvement of legal representation a foregone conclusion. Commerce cannot exist for long without it.
