---Was talking about a previous company who made steps to shift from it for pricing reasons. Seems they where misinformed.

Huh? SQLite is public domain.[0] There are paid extensions for encrypted and compressed databases[1], but those cost a flat fee for unlimited devices:[2] "Your license is perpetual. You have paid a one-time fee that allows you to use and modify the software forever. You can ship as many copied of the software to your customers as you want so long as you ensure that only compiled binaries are shipped (you cannot distribute source code) and that your customers cannot make additional copies of the software to use for other purposes."

Interesting - it's been a long time since I used / looked at it. There was a big uproar in the company though and a drive to move away from it due to licensing and cost from there. Maybe they where misinformed.

I would say terribly so.

How is it not free for commercial use? It’s public domain code. I just rechecked the license after reading your comment.
