Can't you screen out demos a little better than that?  You probably know of
those  30 that you aren't going to be interested in 25.

He's got a cable modem so he doesn't care. Kinda like me with CD's full
of demos from CGW mags which I hardly ever try out - although I will buy
F15 now because of the demo.

1 purchase in 40 demos.  I don't see the need for any new games for
quite a while after GPL anyway.  Motocross Madness demo looks very
tempting for some comic relief though.

Demos are ok, but I will download and play a demo which I'm not interested
in buying (cable also) because it costs nothing and it's more a matter of
checking out some eye-candy rather than being interested in gameplay.

For gameplay and purchasing decisions, I rely on newgroups (where you
can find real experiences) and anything by Papyrus.
