No,it is not abandonware;whether you like it or not Cloanto is a LICENSED seller of the ROM codes,etc.
I am just so damn disgusted with so-called premium supporters of anything who basically just want it all free.In the heydays of Commodore Amiga  too many felt they should only have to pay for the computer and then use all the stolen software they  could find.I guess Americans aren't so noble after all.
Hyperion and Amiga,Inc just went through a big court battle over the OS rights.Hyperion  won.

Amiga Forever also gathers all those bits in a nice  package that installs and runs easily for the average Amiga fan who doesn't have time and effort to play in the files.

All  you "cough" software thieves helped kill the Amiga market for software long ago.

I,for one, would rather not be known for how much of others' work I have stolen.You?


Dude, people are buying this stuff and it's not showing up in the mail box. All the money that was to be made was already made, this is 20 year old stuff. The folks who wrote it moved on and the companies behind it are in the grave yard. The stuff folks need to emulate were built into the machines and just about everybody who would want to emulate paid for it at least once anyway considering they had an Amiga in days past!
