Upload the files here so your provider doesn't complain! https://rapidshare.com/

That would be illegal and breaking the GBT of rapidshare.

Do you actively ignore what people are writing?

This is NOT about getting "great Virtual Machine software".
This is about getting legal replacements for Workbench disks suitable for installation on REAL Amigas.
Using Amiga Forever contents for that purpose is illegal according to Cloanto.

What is unclear?

They can write what they want, into their EULA. If they sell AF in Switzerland , then you can make with this CDs and their contents what you want. So you can make as many copies for real Amigas as you happened to own.

I dug this up out of the usenet archives circa 1993. Not legally binding, but I thought it interesting anyway. Check out the bit I have in bold underline and the apparent CBM official posting....

However, if you have an A1000 and copy a friend's Kickstart because
 yours went bad, I don't think anyone would have a problem with that.

That 100% the way Commodore Switzerland handeled the case of copying Kicks and WB up to Version 2.1. They changed it somewhat with OS3.1, as you had to have the original disk to get  a replacementcopy from the dealer. BUT they never complaint about copying amongst friends.
