ITPEC FE Subject A October 2024 Question 60
Which of the following is an explanation of a volume license agreement?
Explanation
A contract that predefines the number of installations for bulk purchasers — a volume license covers many copies under one agreement.
A volume license lets a company that needs software on many PCs acquire the right to install it a fixed number of times under a single contract, usually at a lower unit price and with simpler license management than buying one package per PC.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- •(a) — a license deemed concluded when the package is unwrapped is a shrink-wrap license
- •(c) — unlimited machines or users restricted to one facility is a site license
- •(d) — agreeing by clicking on the terms shown on screen during a download is a click-wrap (click-on) license
Key rule: Name a license by what it limits or how it is accepted: volume by number of installations, site by location, shrink-wrap by opening the package, click-wrap by clicking to agree.
