Anyone know why StarRoms has reduced their ROM selection since last year?

Last year I downloaded a list of ROMS that StarRoms had available for sale.

IIRC it's because Atari is releasing a classics release, and this would confilct with it.

This has got me thinking.

You need to convince the manufacturers that the roms won;t compete witht he console rereleases.

Hanaho has a long-term exclusive license with Capcom, so that kills that batch (no way Hanaho would give up their deal).

Atari/Midway/Williams games are all actively being sold in collections, so no hope there.

Nintendo is anti-emulation.

What does that leave us with? What can StarRoms do really? I am sure they must have made all the phone calls they can already, and either the publishers want too much cash, or they are really against emulation.
