Cloanto selling demoscene productions...

What's the deal with a package like this?:
http://www.c64forever.com

"More than 200 preinstalled games and demoscene productions"

I don' think they are allowed to sell demoscene productions, are they? Or have they cleared it with their authors?

I guess the Triad guys gave permission for The Wild Bunch too. I was never asked ;) Though it's fine with me either way.

HA! No demos from Resource. Cloanto ignores Oswaldbogár.

The point is probably: Less people to ask for permission.

Looks to me they do care about the permission-thing at least a bit. In order to save some work, they selected a few groups only and asked them. Reasonable approach, although not my personal favourite ;) Then again, I won't buy the CD, so...

actually Cloanto focused onto the main project itself (interface, lib, db etc etc etc) so I think that contacting most of active sceners would be a "little" time consuming.
If you would like to see your production in a future release of C64Forever you are free to leave a message on the support page stating your decision to include your intro/demo/muzax/game (just make sure there are no known legal copyright issues with bgm, gfx or whatever).

As I've already said before: contact Cloanto, they would be happy to receive costructive feedback or content to add.

Cheers!

Yup, looks like it. I was sceptic in the beginning, but that CD seems to be OK after all. (I personally just don't need it ;))
