Copyright laws

Is it legal if someone sells a game demo. It might be because more people will buy the game if they have the demo. I also dont mean jampacks. Also would it be legal if the person copyrighted it.

(I have not done this, I am just curious)

Answer #1

It is not legal to sell a demo game because a demo means demonstration. But I suppose its up to the company, in the end they are the ones that decide.

Answer #2

Game demos are also copyrighted. You can not sell any copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright holder. In some cases, copyrighted material comes with a free distribution license, but not generally.
