Software licenses are bought all the time.

  Sure, but that's a very different type of license compared to a hunting license, driver license or similar stuff, you know, the context.

    And the initial comment that started this was that "Purchase license" in reference to this... software license... wasn't clear. Arguing about whether you buy a hunting license or that it's not a perfect analogy seems pedantic and irrelevant.

      > Arguing about whether you buy a hunting license or that it's not a perfect analogy seems pedantic and irrelevant It's a completely different thing, it's like comparing buying a "license" (ticket) to ride a roller coaster and taking a driving license, they're obviously different things, not exactly pedantic, imo.

    Yeah. But we're talking about software licenses here. It was more weird hunting and drivers licenses ever got brought up.
