>Click here to download PyMOL. It’s free for personal use. Then, find the protein you’d like to visualize on the Protein Data Bank. Once you’re ready to go, use these basic commands to render a protein in David Goodsell’s style.
So you can install it and not have to worry about not having a license. The "free for personal use" stuff is only for the prebuilt binaries. Schrodinger is taking advantage of the fact that many biologists don't know how to install stuff from the command line.

Note, pymol is also available as open-source software: https://github.com/schrodinger/pymol-open-source or https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pymol-open-source

Damn, Schrodinger is taking advantage of me!
Thanks for the comment. Good to know this.
