It may well be better for everyone if this was done, but I strongly believe that people should have the right to choose to do things that are not in their best interests, or anyone elses. This is the foundation of a liberal democracy and capatilist society. ;-) Perhaps if someone were to set up a tidy web site with a catalogue of known Sam games (a picture of the box a breif description, etc.), then wrote a nice letter to the copyright holders... The distributable games could have a little note saying "Generously made available by (Author's name) and the kind people at (...) Software.
