PD COMPANIES,ARE YOU ON THEIR LIST ?
]--------------------------------------

   PD companies is appering everywhere,
even respected computer-mags have begun
to form libraries over PD stuff,so that
the ordinary user  has a chance  to get
his hands on good programs,for only the
cost of delivering.

   In these libraries there is a lot of
demos too,and that is just great,becozz
the more your "product" is being spread
the better.But nowadays people are get-
ting greedier and if they have a chance
to make a few money... and the computer
scene is no exeption. I know there is a
lot of PD companies selling demos,slide
shows,or muzak disks & say all products
are made  to be  copied freely  by  the
user and you not have to pay  7 dollars
for them. But  that  is  just  what  is
happening , people making  a  living on
something we have made, and most of the
time  we  don't even know  our products
are being sold.But are we going to let
rotten PD companies make a lot of money
on our hard work ?

  NO ! and a lot of groups have started
to write a little note  in the begining
of their products saying: " THIS IS NOT
TO BE SOLD,WITHOUT OUR PERMISSION" ,but
is it enough ?
                 I don't think so...

Here is an exemple of those PD sellers:

    Pressimage ( they own in France :
St magazine , Generation 4 & DP mag )

   They sell demos 50 FF (=5 pounds ) !
+ 15 FF (=1.5 pounds ) for shipping and
handling !

    It can be found in their list:
  Oh crickey wot a scorcher  -  Decade
Life's a bitch  -  Syntax terror ....

 And  those mother fuckers  sell  demos
on ATARI ST,but also on AMIGA & PC !!

[  What do you think of them,what can we
[do agaisnt them ? Write us !
