Why is this labelled as shareware? It doesn't have a trial mode of any form, at least that I can find. Searching for 'demo' in their FAQ returns nothing. The only way to make it start running, once you launch it, is to hit cancel until it finally gives up.
I can't in good faith rate this, because I can't evaluate it at all. But it's listed as Shareware here. If that's MacUpdate's fault, they need to address that.
If it's the AM developer(s) who posted this as shareware though, it would be nice to know how we are supposed to share it. If there's a shareware version, they need to link to that.
Otherwise, maybe include instructions for getting a temp license, other than to email them for more info.
