I would say that a certain double standard exists.  The EKTA CD is not available

to the public domain, and it is not being sold to the public as a viable
business.
In other words, even if you wanted to, you can't go out and buy a copy.  It is
for the
use of VW dealers, not the public.  I don't have a copy of the EKTA, but in my
own
little ethical world, that is why I wouldn't have a problem violating that
copyright law.
The same can be said for the VW Pro Training manuals.  You can't buy them, and
they weren't originally "sold".

Bentley is available in the public domain, is being sold as a viable business.
Copying
it not only violates what ever applicable laws there are, but is also hurting
someone's
business, livelihood, and the investment that was made to author it.

That's my take... $0.02 CDN
