The problem with that is, if there is a fully functional version of Logic, even if it is supposed to expire it would be much easier for pirates to 'crack' that Logic demo into never expiring. The whole point of the XSKey is to make sure someone using Logic has actually paid for it, and having a never-expiring demo that didn't need the XSKey is not something Emagic will ever want. Even if the demo was a full version of Logic programmed to not save or do other things like that, those restrictions could possibly be removed with an illegal patch. So that's why Emagic will never have a Logic demo that doesn't need an XSKey to work...
