Is Amiga Inc's claim to AOS valid?

[LordSpunky]

I just wish the company that owns AOS IP, whether that is Commodore Holdings, Amiga Inc, Escom, Acer, Franko, or myself to release the ROM's and Workbench's as a back catalog. I could do with a new copy of 1.3.3! And 3.1 A4000T.......and yeah I can get hooky copies, yeah I can download what I want when I want, with no money changing hands, yes that piracy, and yes I don't give a fuck what you think about that.
But most of the time I do like to pay, and sometimes I do like to hold the original copy. £5 for a new copy of Workbench I would pay.......

And don't chime in with "but you can get them already on Amiga Forever" that's fine if you want to buy Amiga Forever but what about folk who simply want to get hold of the ROM Image Files or WorkBench Disk Sets by themselves...

I know it wouldn't be a money spinner (not by a long shot) for whomever owns them but it would be more of a Public Service to the Amiga Community  who still support these great machines despite the years of crap we've had to put up with by these companies who couldn't give a shit about us anymore cos we're no longer a big money maker for them...

Agreed Franko, basically my thoughts. My WB 3.1 discs are corrupt, so when I do an Install it plays up, I think last time it took me 10 tries to install the fonts disc and in the end I used one of my many 3.0 fonts discs.

I would like to get a 'fresh' new copy.....yeah I had search on ebay, yes I can get an ADF and play about with it, but it would be nice to go to Amiga Inc and click 'Send me a frickin' new copy of Workbench, so I can keep the dream alive!' button.......

.......argh.......did any of that make sense? I think my boards have gone a bit bandy.....
