Wait until you see Oracle's licenses for their (business) software, then you'll really be scared. They like to demand access to your buildings and servers there whenever they want so they can verify you have enough licenses.
Try registering a network of 50 computers for Windows (when for security reasons you can not access the Internet from that network). It ain't easy for one. It's terrible for 50.
