Read the License Agreement when you download from OTN. For most products
(except SQL Developer), it will say:
"If you use the application you develop under this license for any internal
data processing or for any commercial or production purposes, or you want to
use the programs for any purpose other than as permitted under this
agreement, you must obtain a production release version of the program by
contacting us or an Oracle reseller to obtain the appropriate license."
I think the "FREE" links are blatantly and intentionally misleading.
However, I have better things to do than sue Oracle. Like creating SRs...
