"support". It's perfectly legitimate for a company selling themes to<br>
not restrict actual usage, but to instead restrict the level of<br>
support that they offer. So you might offer support for only a limited<br>
number of sites, say for a single domain, but offer support for any<br>
number of sites at a higher price level.<br>
<br>
It may be slightly misleading, and I can understand that sort of<br>
interpretation, but hey, that's marketing for you.<br>
