Broderbund ClickArt 1,200,000 Reviews

Summary of review published by Connected Photographer — February, 2007



The ClickArt 1,200,000 is a collection of clipart and templates aimed at the business owner. Looking at the box, the reviewer notes that the product claims to be useful for business presentations, brochures, newsletters, signs, web sites, and other publications. However, some extremely fine print says the opposite. There are actually some restrictions on how you can use the content in this collection, and the text declaring these restrictions is smaller than the size of a penny. It’s not even highlighted or emphasized, so only a sharp-eyed buyer will be able to read it before purchase. You can’t use any of the collection’s content in print or electronic media for any editorial or commercial purposes - a strange restriction for a collection marketed at business owners and professionals. The restrictions only allow use for private home and school projects. According to the reviewer, the product web site doesn’t even indicate these restrictions. If buyers mistakenly use any of the ClickArt content for business purposes, there’s a risk that Broderbund can sue them. This potential liability is simply not worth the $49 price tag on this product.
