Umilator poll : Comment 17 of 50 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Raffaele on 18-Feb-2003 22:35 GMT | In reply to Comment 13 (Mekanix): Mr. Mekanik was in doubt about the basenumber of users of Amithlon, capable to legitimate further development.
Quoting:
----------------
>Count them. There is what 20-30 persons posting on the Amithlon-Open
>list (don't know how many is supscribed)?
>Some 10-15 people here on ann, a few over at moobunny.
>And 5-10 people are the same in all those places.
>Don't know about amiga.org, don't read it.
Well, if you read on the site of Bernd Mayer about the reasons he closed down it all...
...Then you will see that he was upset for the fact he received a lots of contacts about to download upgrades of Amithlon from unregistered users.
I think that there are about MINIMUM one thousand pirated copies out there, if it is real the fact they are drying-out all his internet band quota.
If Bernd will make the choice to sell every copy "ad personam", via download on-line and payement by postal cheques... and every copy marked with embedded code, then he will sell a lots of copies and will avoid major piracy...
By the way he must perform another major task before.
he MUST rewrite all code to avoid legal suit from Haage & Partner.
They still are the owners of the copyrights of Amithlon, due to the hanging-rope contract which poor Bernd signed...
Bye,
Raffaele |
