Mind you, I'm not at all disputing the value of Amiga CD-ROMs or the fact that there is a market for them. I just stated a couple of facts relavant to the specific Compuserve CD ROM mentioned. First, even if you could sell tens of thousands of them, you can't sell nearly as many of them as you can PC CD-ROMs, so you probably can't sell them for $9 ea. Second, most of the Amiga freely redistributable software is already very well represented on Fish and AmiNet, and those two already overlap a lot. I don't think that there is a good market for a third overlapping CD of general Amiga freely redistributable software. There might be a good market for more specialized collections. — Dale L.
