Can just chip in for a moment...
ALL of the TOSEC disks are regularly posted on USENet. Shutting the site down wont make them go away. This is one case where the Whack-A-Mole philosophy definately applies.
I have, for my sins, a CD of TOSEC demos and games, none of it any newer than 1997 (according to the wonderful TOSEC naming system).
I have these so that I can on occasion take a trip down memory lane. How else would I have done this ? camped on eBay spending 100s of pounds? I think not...
In short, if you can still buy it, buy it. If not, then be creative and get a copy.
Incidently what is the default copyright lifetime of software?
