Really? Is that common? Cause I doubt I would buy one if that was the case for that tutorial. I am not totally convinced that is even legal. If the particular technique is copyrighted (or patented) then you could prevent others from actually using that technique. For example, the TV show 'How it's made' shows hows things are made but that doesn't mean you can go make and sell whatever they are showing. But I am not sure, with out you signing a physical confidentiality clause that they can prevent you from discussing the techniques.
This is a hot topic legally and most of the rules haven't been formalized.
BUT this seems like a small community and I would follow the rules that yall have informally setup. If I don't like the rules regarding the tutorial (and I would want to know before I bought) then I would either agree to their rules or choose to not buy the product
