The $500 is an unlimited liscence.

If you sell 10 systems, that's only $50 per copy.

It seems like a resonable deal to me. Not that you cannot
legally distribute you ST/V applications without it
(or buying the whole package for your users.) You seem to know this.
I've seen other system that add a password to the browser
but leave the file-in alone so they can do updates.
Stops the causal accident, may be good enough.
