What would be the best description to replace Royalty Free?

Full Paid Rights
Once Off Royalty
One Fee All Rights
All Rights Paid

Suggestions?

Would there ever be a change for this confusing name? Who invented that name anyway and why can't it be changed?

It was created in the days when professionals were the only ones licensing images and had to pay royalties for each use. Now all sorts of people use images and I guess have no idea what the heck royalties are. "Pay-once images" might work, but it's not the most enticing language.

Any suggestions Sue?

How about No-Longer-Royalty-Free? Ok ok I'd say something like Rights Enhanced.

I'd prefer if it was done away with. An unrestricted right license should cost a ton more but is actually the cheapest license.

Who invented it? I dunno. No sane business person would ever create a product that costs money and uses the name free in it. "Hey everybody come check out my new Chevy Cost Free" or "My Nikon Price Free".

I'm using a hybrid license on my site. It's Rights Managed but i'm simplifying it to make using it easier.

For the imaginary own site that I've never worked up, my idea was something else. No RF or same giveaway rights, under any other name. I made up my own license.

It would be a Single Use License. Plain and simple, one download, one use. Unlike RM it would not be as restrictive, wouldn't ask what the use was, publication, location, size or much else except - If it would go over a print run of 250,000 or used on a product or as a print. Then an EL would be needed.

It would be a simple, single use license. For as long as the site used it, or the magazine wanted, and if in syndication, that would be one use, all outlets included.

What I'm suggesting is, RF should be executed and something new given life. RM and others are just fine, but the unlimited, uncontrolled, unrestricted aspects of RF are just absurd. Especially on some sites where it's a lifetime use, unlimited, forever for one simple sub DL?

And we worry about illegal use and misuse? HA! With a license some just paid a pittance for unlimited legal use.

No, because I wish they'd never invented RF!
(Ooops didn't read Paulie's post before I posted.)
Of course, it benefits the buyers, but led to the race to the bottom, even when it was macro RF.

So how can this RF term be changed then? What would it take to change it?

Is it up to the agencies? Or is there some authority on this?
