I'm not against downloading - I tried everywhere to get replacements
from game shops and newsgroups - someone posted thief 1 for me but it
was a rip - voice files were missing etc, so that prompted me to check
ebay.
I have a download limit on my broadband so am paying for any downloads
anyway. Then there's the cost of the discs to burn to, and cases, and
covers.
Apart from downloading you can't really beat less than £3 for each
game,
Just when I got the games through the post someone else posted full
versions of them in the group I mentioned.
