From: Sue Morton on
When I was looking at Reaper there was no way I could give it a fair go in
30 days. I repsect the spirit of the trial agreement, if not the letter of
it, so I kept Reaper installed (and updated) for something closer to a year
than to the 30 days. It just took me that long to evaluate enough of the
features to know it was useful to me, and I bought a license. It's not like
I was using it for free for productive work, it really was just an
evaluation.

I can't speak for the Reaper folks, of course, but if you're evaluating it
for its potential usefulness to you, I can't see how they'd have any issue
with that -- regardless of how long that takes you. After all, like me you
might end up a customer.

Just my $0.02 USD...
