In your example above, the red text is true, blue text is false. I trust myself and friends, I don't know my customers from a hole in the wall. Is he a copyright lawyer? A Wlliams exec? Selling ROMs or even appearing to sell ROMs is a much worse offense than posessing them for personal use. All IMHO of course. |

Is there anyone here who can say that every rom they have is dumped from their own original boards? Hmmmm |

Maybe a few hard-core folks. I plan on buying all of the StarRoms-available ROMS that I play. I wish that they would strike deals with the other vendors, because I really want my cabinet to be 100% licensed. I only play 20 games regularly. If I could legally and reasonably own the software ROMs (I don't mean by buying boards for 15-70$) I would gladly pay for the right. Just as the music industry is missing out, I think that the arcade manufacturers are missing out on a small but steady revenue stream by not selling the old ROMs. |

funny thing is most people who post that it's illegal probably have a coin door and keep the money after people play on their cabinets. :P |
