Unfortunately, it is not that easy. First off, "contract law", apart from being incredibly complex, is also different depending on where you are located. Even within the US, we have seen different rulings on whether EULAs are enforceable or not. It often depends on how these EULAs are presented to the user and how exactly they are worded. Here in Germany, I'm pretty sure that the above would not be enforceable, but the real reason these EULAs are written is usually not that they hold up in court. From my experience, having an EULA like this will make pretty sure that no company with a legal department will touch this thing with a 10foot pole, so in effect, EULAs actually do work (unfortunately). |

I agree, because of AGB-law, though that depends on some stuff, the usual EULA-void rules were because you had to buy the software before agreeing to the EULA instead of the other way around. Not sure what would happen here.
But IIRC that is generally not relevant for contracts between companies, only between consumers and companies. Not quite sure about that part, though.
