Using the Tool »
Okay, I'm not even going to talk about the subject of the post. Draw your own conclusions. But that's what they said they wanted.
I use Movable Type for a personal weblog. By personal, I mean family. I also have a blog set up for handling the software pieces, like some people might use a blog for a sidebar. And I have a test blog for, well, testing. So we really have two blogs and two authors, though since my better half hasn't written recently, she could technically be counted as inactive. This means we would fit into the free license without issue. As long as she stays mostly inactive, I'd have no problem with that. If she picked up and posted regularly, that might be an issue.
However, the company is another story. Definitely a commercial entity, even if the commercial aspect is somewhat weaker than I might like. And with the new licenses, it means I can charge people for MT work, so I'll definitely want to blog about that, and I'm thinking that using MT for the site would be useful. Which means I'm headed for a commercial license, with the way things stand.
I could also run the free version on the personal site and WordPress or something else on the commercial site, but it's probably not comforting to customers that you'll support something - and charge them for it - but you don't run it yourself. Then again, I could sell WordPress services too. I'm still undecided.
