I thought it was interesting that they specifically limit the context in which you may use the icons, e.g. “You may not use, or allow anyone else to use The Icons to create pornographic, libelous, obscene or defamatory material.”
I’ve seen some UI’s that are guilty on all counts…

Ha! The Basic set is still the same price, but they added more icons and charged more for them, so both I guess :)
