thanks for your reply

I might be wrong, bur as far as as I now the developer/publisher companies must support/sell the game to consider it NOT abandonware; in the abandonwarering.com forum I found this note by Swizzle:

3rd party retailers don't count as they do not have the ability to produce more copies and are just left with what is left over from the initial run
[/b]
what you think about ?

edit: I just found this statement by Tom Henrik:

Quote:
Abandonware has different description all over the place, but here on this site we follow THESE rules:

1. No-one is selling the game (second-hand auctions doesn't count).
2. No-one is supporting the game.
3. No-one will get mad at us for placing the software up for download
[/b]
doesn't cdaccess count as a second-hand retailer ?
