- Would it be possible for someone with access to a pirate board to get say
- a list of the current top 100 pirated Amiga programs.
-
- I think the information would be usefull in several ways:
- 1. Since pirates dont pay for software the cost of a package is not a worry.
- So they take the best, with no regard to cost.
- 2. They dont have docs so the programs must be intuitive. I have manuals
- but it bugs me when I have to use them for simple things.
- 3. If your software really is being pirated in a big way it would be nice
- to know!
