Dave are Royalties being paid to PAPYRUS for your converter?

I bet not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

> I bet not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why the antagonism? The guy simply made a program and wants to sell it. You already need to own the tracks for the converter to work so Papyrus isn't being short changed a bit. These converted tracks will never see the NROS, they are simply for entertainment. I find it difficult to understand all this negative ***about charging for software. It's most likely the same people who have never registered shareware in their life. Now that the patches are out, the whiners need something else to complain about. Wake up and smell the coffee! Terry TerryH on Hawaii

Thank god for a sane comment, thank you Terry, as for wetter... get a life. stop crying because he wants money for his hard work. he owes nothing to papyrus because his converter contains NO papyrus programming. you have already paid for the tracks. now to use them on another program you have to PAY for that right...get over it. Thank You Dave for an awesome converter, when I save up 30 bucks and also buy ICR2 I'll pay for your program. And be happy to do so. TrenT -- CatchMeIfU.........................Can

I just had an intresting thought! Do you think PKWARE in paying all the software owners for compressing there software? I BET NOT!

PKWARE doesn't really convert your file from one useable format to another useable format. When PKWARE (PKZIP->PKUNZIP) is done the file is (hopefully) in it's original format. mykey

The Zipped format is "usable" only by PKUNZIP. and it only recreates the original format. There isn't any "value" added to the data. mykey

The PK example is perfectly valid IMHO. The file is converted from its original state (of a usable executable, etc.), and then when zipped becomes another usable format in which it can be stored or transfered electronically. Best Regards, Marc Marc J. Nelson Sim Racing News - USA

I'd call reducing my my file sizes 25-75% (especially for modeming) a VALUE!

Yo, since your serving coffee and doughnuts, how bout a little cream and surgar and a couple chocolate glazed ring doughnuts. I admit, I'm a real sucker for chocolate doughnuts. So what the **** does this have to do with royalties anyways? Chas -- ------- Chasman Simulator ***world http://sim
