Will you please buzz off?
Multiboards are openly available at all online retailers.
ROMs can be downloaded off mainstream archive sites.
Nobody cares.

lol.. cloud..
the most stupid idea the industry has had in recent memory.
local storage is cheap, fast (latency and transfer rate), private, and dependable.
so let's try convincing everybody to replace it with a system that is none of those things.
I'm happy to say we have no intention of ever integrating any kind of 'cloud services' into MAME.
yes, it's a popular buzzword, no, it is not a good idea.

Some people care. I'd like to see a US citizen try this from a base in USA.

Cloud as an offsite backup isnt a terrible idea. Having it as the only back up is.

The Cloud, is just a way for the controlling forces / industry ...to try to take away your personal computer, and personal data storage capability.
It makes hacking into your data a Dream come true. Anytime, anywhere.. someone can spy on your new ideas, steal them, and produce them.. before you even gather the capital to attempt it.
They can threaten and or just turn off / erase your years of data.. in the blink of an eye. This includes.. precious photos, resume info, years of work / research, contacts of importance, and even important records.
It all starts with a buzzword, hypnotic advertising, and some form of small benefit... then some attacks on current methods... then some social engineering psychology, to get youngens to defend it in the name of their "time". And or some Phear mongering, and finally monetary bribing and or forced govt. policies pushed.
The game is Tired... and foul... but it keeps working... and it even advances..
Years and Years of mind-destroying / controlling programming, have Zombified the masses...
