I suppose you just get a license for one cpu core for your database servers and run them on 32-corevservers too?
The license is strange - but it is what Apple is selling.
And AFAIK the latest release is a "free" (gratis) download anyway - so you can't even claim you've paid for it.
I mean sure, you can ignore the license. Maybe Apple won't sue, but they might revoke your developer access, I loud account etc.
[ed: anyway, the thread started with a claim about "moral" obligation, I'm just pointing out that Apple is refusing to give or sell a valid license, so you're in breach of the license. I don't see how it's legally very different from an illegal copy of Microsoft Windows).]
