I do not mean to cause offense here - that is not and has never been my intention.

I for one, and there are others on this list who agree with me, feel that it is crazy not to be able to download titles like we can for just about every other format.

What I don't know (after asking the question 3 times but to no response) is what titles Persona owns. Therefore, please forgive my naivety. If Persona owns titles that were written/produced/co-ordinated by Malcolm McKenzie then I find nothing wrong with charging for these. Indeed, under the tragic circumstances it is an honourable thing to do. I don't disagree with you selling your own software Colin neither, if you recall. None of us can work for nothing.

What I do feel is wrong is to sell titles that were written independently of Persona (ie Lemmings, Prince of Persia, etc) and that therefore belong to others outside of Persona, regardless as to who owns the copyright.

So please, Colin, as you seem the only relevant person about on this list to put the question to - what titles does Persona/David Ledbury etc own the copyright to? Once I discover this, then there won't be any need to make sarcastic comments in order to provoke a response.

The whole idea of selling the Persona titles for a few quid (well, the ones that David L holds the copyright and distribution rights to) was going to be done in memory of Malcolm MacKenzie (who ran Persona) who died very suddenly in 1999 due to a heard attack, with the few quid that will made going to a few decent health
related charities.

Perhaps show a little less sarcasm towards the idea ?
