The ill-fated Alive Mediasoft are back, under the name Alive World. On their website they are selling Mac games, DVDs and, funnily enough, R'n'B music. In addition, MacWorld claim in their news item that "the company plans to ship a CD compilation of games called Amiga 4 Mac. It will be a collection of classic Amiga games and an Amiga OS emulator."

Alive Mediasoft back in business : Comment 31 of 34 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Mark Wilson on 06-Dec-2000 23:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 29 (Anonymous): >David took the time to report AmiBench to trading standards because we refused >to publish his "press releases" (Someone had seemingly subscribed me to his >press release mailing list without my permisson)
Well who ever you are you are not part of the AmiBench Group because I only speak offically for AmiBench.
>No. Mark prints his e-mail address on the Amibench website. While he is >seemingly happy to give commercial advertising to one Amiga magazine (Amiga >Active) he wrote a rude e-mail to me accusing me of spam when I sent a press >release to him. Bearing in mind this apparent contradiction and connections >to .Amiga Active, a publication being already being sued by my company, I >reported it to the trading standards.
Right, I do print my address on AmiBench so people can contact me. I dont state anywhere that I want my email addess being added to a mailing list of any kind.
I have sent no one a "rude" email. Its interesting to note that you speak on David Connollys behalf buy using such words as (I quote here "he wrote a rude e-mail to me accusing me of spam when I sent a press release" and you have "rude" email from me. I would be very interested to see this "rude" email seeing as I am public relations for AmiBench - I take this as a very serious issue.
We give no commercial advertising to Amiga Companies. Oddly Most Amiga Companies refuse to sponsor us because we take trade away from them (by being in the second hand classifieds market).
>I guess then you shouldn't run a website that on one hand claims to be so far >away from commercialism that it can't accept press releases and on the other >is happy to promote itself like a commercial site, including making >advertising contracts.
We have only made advertising contacts with third party services such as Chris Kemp does with ANN (we use different companies that help pay server costs ans so on). Its my right to do as I wish on *my* site. I dont see anyone threatening to take Chris to court because he has "Commercial adverts" on his site.
>Plus why on earth Mark has decided to drag this out again other than to be >libellous I have no idea.
Who says I am being libellous? I dont think anything I have said is libellous. |
