I learned a long time ago that unless someone presents the absolute technical facts to pretty much ignore some of what they're saying! I don't mean that as harsh as it might sound, however case in point the URL provided by AndreNL99 only uses the term "trial" one time on that page and uses the term "evaluation" 23 times... get the picture!?
I never use the Akamai DLM unless there is just not another option and usually I get the direct download link from it, or elsewhere, and then use wget to do the download.
