Not true. Crystal Reports can be distributed royalty free as long as you are not programmatically creating reports. This has been the policy for many versions.
>If you use Doug Hennig's Sfreports, you will have full programmatic control in VFP. Other topics you said exciting but I heard Crystal Reports since vers. 9 has no support royalty free for runtime on clients.
