I wrote something about this for BCR (twice)

We need software equivalents of
service level agreements, not EULAs.

What I can't fathom is why a company that purchases on the order of10,000 desktop licenses and 2200 server licenses *ever* accepts a EULA - we are talking $M's here in the shrinked wrapped S/W, and arguably double that amount for S/W administration
yet EULA is accepted practice, whereas the same company pays $10,000/month for
telco/ISP access haggle SLAs to death.
