I think the website itself gives the best reasons why it is useful.

But basically, it is useful for anyone with an Amiga and original games. If you have ever suffered from an original disk dying from bit rot - you will know what I mean!

I got no problem with it, but I'm just curious for whom you want to preserve these games. In fact right now there are lot's of sites, which try to collect all the amiga stuff and give it back to the users. I don't agree with you about the fact that a game is more valuable to be preserved if it is not cracked.

"excerpt from your hp:

Do NOT contact us to:

Tell us what a great idea this project is. Thank you for your support in advance!

Tell us what a bad idea this project is. That is your opinion and everyone has the right to have one. We know good reasons for both cases but it takes valuable time to read such letters.
Ask for the games. You'll have the opportunity - as soon as the time is right - to have them. But we shall not enter any discussion regarding the matter at this time."

Just contact us for goodies ... Ok, no discussion ... no support by myself. Your hp doesn't convince and rigth now it looks like a "send-us-all-your-stuff-for-free-project-and-we-have-lots-of-fun-with -it".

That section may sound bad, I do agree - but that was never the intention. I guess it depends on how you read it. Do you know how much time a project like this might take up? Quite a lot!

As for discussion - we quite welcome any questions - just look at the contact page for the support we supply! We just didn't want to get bombarded by emails that served no purpose other than maybe raise our ego's... Do you see?

Anyway, I guess until we have finished the technology and actually get things "out there" people will remain unconviced. Which is fine... No problem. The reason we went public so early with it is because we wanted to make sure that we could support any form of copy protection - and not have to go back and change things later if we found something we had not encountered before. After that stage was complete (as it is now) - was their any point in going private again? That would have looked really good! (not)...

Anyway, I talk to much. In summary - we are getting there. I hope that you change your mind once you see how valuable we believe this project to be - perhaps when we are at the stage were we are actually putting things back into the community. I guess this may convice many people too. It shouldn't be too far away now... We just wanted to start preserving the games *now* as we can do that *now*. They are not getting any younger!



Oh, and the "we-have-lots-of-fun-with -it" - well we don't yet really since we are far too busy. Playing the games is the last step before a release - I personally have not played any of them yet, mostly because we have not finished our remastering tools!
