I was very unhappy with the decision to stop aminet-cds. I got the CDs from that aminet-abo-club.  Maybe the number of uploads is decreasing, but do think one reason is the stop of Aminet-CDs! I am more in hurry in programmin/painting/releasing whatever if I have a certain deadline -> the release of a new Aminet-CD! This motivation is lost now IMHO. I wish we could get new Aminet-CDs from time to time. I have DSL but nevertheless the CDs are necessary. For instance an author can deceide to remove a program from Aminet (Just upload a "dummy" update to a older version. Or a new version introduces incidentally an error. If the author does not fix that error (maybe he left the Amiga with this final update), the older (in this case better versions are no longer accessible. And think of longer mpeg movies from 3d artists or from important events... I can simple put the Aminet CDs into my DVD-player and watch the movies, without Aminet CDs this cool feature is lost.

I want new Aminet-CDs, with all stuff as they had before. If there is not enoufg suff uploaded maybe the time between  new CDs can be enlarged. Every 4 month? Or two per year?
