So, How do you prove you should have a copy of Amiga OS? That is other than face to face showing the other person that you own an Amiga. I think that's the kink in the works.

Oh, I wan't saying that there is anything wrong with this. I was just taking off on Bloodline's post. Basically, when is it piracy.
Obviously, a PC user using emulation would have a near impossible time trying to use and Amiga formatted disk. There are ways, but not many would have the ablilty to do it. Also, sending a zip, lha, or dms presents basically the same problem to someone with an Amiga with no OS.
So, basically it comes down to if someone pops on asking for an OS disk. You ask them for their POST address and ship them a disk. If they don't like that, then they probably dont' need it as they don't own an Amiga.

I was just brewing discussion.
