I have had trouble with viewing this web site too lately.

Everything there is on this (Back2TheRoots) web site is legal, right? And you do not need to own your own copy?

Yep, all legal for personal usage.

I love Back2Roots... but I would prefer them trying to access the rights to use them CAPS releases instead (if they have gotten clearance to use the .adf's the step to being allowed to use the .ipf's of the same games can't be such a mess... or maybe I am wrong here), since they (apparently) work so much better with most WHDLoad installers.

In all honesty I detest them cracked versions of those old games, and many games I've donwloaded from Back2Roots have not been working the way they should. Especially not when using WHDLoad to install them (besides some few installers which actually supports the Back2Roots versions of the games). Some of the games have also seemed to be downright broken and unplayable from start to finish, which maybe isn't so strange... because I doubt that all the games hosted have been played from start to finish to ensure that they are working perfectly. But, what do I know.

Oh. Well. Anyways. It's a great service ANYWAYS, my above point-outs aside, and I do hope they will be going on for a long time! Their efforts are surely appreciated.

Amiga 1200, Mirage Tower, PC-Key 1200, Blizzard 1260/50, SCSI Kit, 256MB RAM, 40GB HD, Mediator SX, Soundblaster 128, Voodoo 3 and Realtek 8139.

They also have a quite a few preinstalled WHDLoad games as well and even some cd32 isos.

BTTR's websever is down, but the FTP server is still functioning... Not a machine problem I'd guess.

A4000D, A3640 OC-36.3MHz, custom tower, Mediator A4000D. Diamond Banshee 16M, Indivision AGA 4000, GVP HC+8.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -

Why they should change to ipfs, when this type is restricted to those who own the real disks?. I personally don't see the point in the politic of CAPS. It's impossible that one person to have  all the titles on amiga originals for asking them to the backup.
Just my two cents
