After some investigating and in part thanks to channler for providing part of the data here, I've found I've taken an action too soon, in this one case dl-ing the game isn't against the law, under certain circumstances and only those few circumstances.
If you wish to discuss this "giving away of a pass" any further then feel free to use pm's as it seems most has been decided already.
kind regards,
Alexander
Edit:
or not

which is why I'm reopening this.
