I was the Product Marketing Manager for the company that, up to a few months ago, used to supply the data to Google Maps.<div><br></div><div>Yes, essentially you are right and Google have not really worked very hard at gaining revenue from that source, however that time will come and it is important to know where you stand. Essentially, once you have turnover, then you will need to purchase commercial licences but hopefully that will mean that you are making lots of money. - Google will want some that money.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Actually, I think that its a great commercial licence. I only wish Delphi and some toolmakers used the same licence. I'd love to develop stuff using, for example the latest Delphi and Woll2Woll's InfoPower tools but I just can't justify the licence cost until I get over a certain turnover, THEN I could buy them.<br clear="all">
