Then maybe they should be clear on these wishes in the license. Normally if you follow the license you comply with the wishes.
1UP:
Just to get back on topic, I NEVER buy the customer testimonials. They always sound fake, and they'll never give you the downside of a product. If your product is good, and you are able to describe it well enough, and have some actual photos, that's all I need. Forums are the only place to go for REAL testimonials. And they work, too! If it wasn't for this board, I'd have never heard of Oscar or Ultimarc.
Affiliate programs are generally wank too. I'd prefer a banner exchange. I'm embarrassed to say I was an affiliate for a few months way back when, and all I ever got out of it was $5. It wasn't even worth the time to cut and paste the links into the web store. I got way more requests for my own plans than I ever got clickthroughs to their site, and in the end I just looked like a major tool. :P
I won't say who I was an affiliate for, but let's just say that they are the main site for buying plans to make MAME cabinets for your game ROOM... ;)

Hey, the topic was that you are now plural! So what's with the "I" stuff :P
rchadd:
i think the use of the "royal " we for a company (rather than a individual) to refer to itself is correct.
one is most amused!
Matt, GoC:
Um, 1Up, since you are concerned with MAME Dev's wishes, can't you find an alternate emulator that will play classic games that you can get from starroms (or whatever)? I'm sure MAME isn't the only emu out there that plays old games.
