#Renegade Software
While browsing through some magazines at a news stand this weekend, the October
1993 issue of Amiga World caught my eye. The cover featured a Kodak Photo CD
disc and a CD rom player.
As I wasn't aware that Photo CD was available on the Amiga, I bought a copy to
see what was new on the Amiga.
The text of the news on Photo CD follows….
"Photo CD has unofficial support on the Amiga because of a renegade software
effort from the internet network…."
I've always considered Amiga World to be a reliable source for honest
information. I was surprised that they would feature on their front cover
"renegade software effort from the Internet network".
Is Kodak aware of the "renegade software" available for the Amiga?
Is the Internet network aware of copyright?
As a developer, I would have second thoughts about developing for a system that
is so proud of their "renegade efforts" that they would herald it as a cover
worthy news item.
I'll have to pick up the November issue of Amiga World to see if they publish
an updated Pirate Bulletin Board List. I can see why software support for the
Amiga is faltering.
It's All Relative
