In today's TOI there is a news item on how M$ has a dispute with Indian tax guys. M$ wants exemption from income tax as software is a 'product' and exempt from tax. The tax guys say that in reality the software is not a product but a royalty as it only allows the user to copy it on one machine to use it for a consideration.
They've been hit by their own EULA. A line from their EULA says ``this product is licensed, not sold'' - thus bringing the question of tax on royality.
