Well, it was a commercial, for profit enterprise.

Let's assume the ffg scenarios:

* Some people don't know how to download ISO files from the internet. Or even how to use them

* Some have poor internet / limited bandwidth

* Their laptops isn't booting and don't want their files wiped by recovery mode

If a technician is to provide repair discs to people in this scenario - no Windows Keys - should the technician customers this disc for free?

This "thought experiment" has nothing to with the case at hand i.e. selling counterfeit recovery disks with identical labels and marking for profit.
Damn how much jail time has Microsoft done for the stuff they've been found guilty of?
