If you take the time to read the Adobe SLA it says that only students, faculty and others associated with an educational institution may use software licensed as educational.
It also states that a SL can not be transferred. Which would address those who "get" educationally licensed software and upgrade to a "full"version.
My only reason for pointing this out is to suggest that ethics does enter into licensing and using software.
It is amusing to me that photographers, as a group, are concerned about protecting the © on their images yet it is common on photo fora to read suggestions about how to circumvent the software license, Intellectual Property and copy rights of others.
