It's hard to keep a stock, because you don't know how many people will buy it. And
he would need money to buy it and keep it waiting to people buy. and if they don't
buy it, he will loose money.

It's fine for me if it's only one, if every club has his own system, but we need
this. About Moonsound or any other hardware, this is only for software, so we can
use e-mail to send the software. I don't care for disks with label, I only want
the software. :-)
