"leeching" http://hol.abime.net/
« on: October 06, 2004, 11:30:11 AM »
Does anyone have this site on CDs/DVDs?
They have some sort of "anti leech" protection so the whole site cant be copied with crawler, is there a way to bypass it?
Better sorry than worry.

I see..
Well, I wasn't trying to download whole of it in, say, one day. A site like that should have enough bandwidth so that it could be downloaded in couple of weeks/ one month.

If what you say is the sole reason, how about putting it into a big .rar and on emule network? That won't eat a lot of your bandwidth. (maybe just a bit in beginning)

I need offline access to it, and don't mind the updates&fixes 'cause it has already a lot of games

Why don't you put what you have now on DVD and sell it for the cost of media?
How large is it anyway?

If all of this is "undesirable" or whatever, how about archiving just textual data, without pictures, that can't be too large?
Better sorry than worry.

So, you are calling me a thief now?  :pissed:
I'd say its you who is stealing information from Amiga games..
That information doesn't belong to you, unless you programmed all those games and draw those boxes in which they were sold.

Who gave you the right to scan copyrighted artwork?
Better sorry than worry.

"Yeah, right"

subject changed, I never meant to leech anything, just copy whole site or at least all .htms .. :-D

I think everybody should have free access to ALL of the information on that site. Its obvious that we won't understand each other, so I'll just stop typing now
Better sorry than worry.
