It sounds like you understand how the license works. However, I encounter a lot of companies that have used the trial version continuously for many years, and many of these encourage other people to do the same.

I am not sure anyone on this list actually does need to do a trial. We all know (because it has been stated a thousand times) that all screen readers behave differently, so if you are designing or testing a website that has to work with JAWS, then you have to have JAWS. And on the flip side, very few people are going to spend $1000+ on it if they don't have to.
