I have literally thousands of disks and when I come across PD disks in my collection I generally ADFBlitz them and stick them on ZIPS and transfer to PCs and other computers. The master library is on the A4000d. Thing is with disk numbers for any PDHouse ranging in the 1000s and then the subcatagories of Utils, Games, Demos, Amags etc you can sense that the amount of disks in circulation are tens and tens of thousands. I have long given up trying to obtain PD disks. The best you can ever do is take a snapshot of a PD. I try to get the catalogue disks.
This is a typical snapshot from one of my disk boxes. The number on the left is my actual disk number.....

As I say just a taste....
I have the disks all over the place to be honest and a table full of them. I am gradually going through all the disks and cataloguing them but it is a long task. I do play some of the disks and they are all copied.
Shame someone didn't try to salvage a whole PD House worth of disks. I often reflect on the fact that they probably just binned the whole collections. So sad that. I have collected boxes of disks that you can tell were stored in old sheds. Still worked though.
Great idea I have to say trying to create a central library somewhere. And you are correct much of what is on these disks is not on Aminet.
