Personal copies have to be broken (or given along with) the legitimate version when you give it away or if Bit-Blot says you can't have it anymore.Quote8. Limitations on License. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude you from making or authorizing the making of another copy of the Program provided, however, that (1) such new copy is created as an essential step in your utilization of the Program in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and for NO OTHER PURPOSE; or (2) such new copy is for archival purposes ONLY and all archival copies are destroyed in the event of your Transfer of the Program, the Termination of this Agreement, or other circumstances under which your continued use of the Program ceases to be rightful.
Can anyone clarify for those who want to know if it's legal?
This is all assuming the EULA is even legal in your state, in most states they aren't and it's entirely up to which circuit the dispute goes through as to if they're enforceable. Even if the state doesn't have EULAs, it still has copyright so you can't go giving out pirate copies just because the specific agreement is meaningless
