The money orders should, of course, be addressed to Marvel Comics, right?

How long did it take you to scan all those comics?
Bob Is Not Here But Garry Is
Direct Connect and most likely he spent all of 2-3 days downloading and then
decided to open up a business. 1 out of 3,000 people before him could have
just as easily done the same thing too. I hope Marvel hunts this guy down
because at least the other 2,999 people are smart enough to keep well enough
alone, even if they don't pay for the comics as it's only linear profit
losses and a lot of people don't have the time to babysit the downloads or
read from a monitor.

released such stuff themselves, I`d be interested in a CD ROM of say 60
issues of Amazing Spiderman presented in the same way their DOT comics are.
Far less space consuming than several boxes of comics and a cheap and easy
way to read all the old stuff. Granted you can`t read it on the bog or
anything but I`m sure it`d sell.

I might be tempted, too. It would be great to take along with the laptop.
Slightly more limited in where I can use it than a normal comic, but
that's a trade-off for basically having a full-colour Essential volume.

I don't know. Dark Horse released an _Heart of Empire_ CD-ROM
which is a must-have for any fan of the series (it includes
_Adventures of Luther Arkwright_, annotations, breakdowns, inked
pages,...) but I don't know how succesfull it's been.

Fear of piracy, probably.

That's what laptops are for...

I would like to think their is. I would certainly buy them.
So far,I only know of the Mad Magazine collection on CDR.
Perhaps the market still needs developing.
What happened with Anime seems a good example
Back in the 70's anime was only available thru comic cons
and tape trading clubs. Fans were really obsessed back then.
Yes is was technically piracy and copyright infringement but
it was essential in creating the market and demand for more anime
releases
Gradually companies got started marketing anime videos and
now there is a healthy variaty available with many titles now
available at the Blockbusters and Walmart stores
Perhaps the comic publishers are hoping that the popularity of
comic scans like at ABPC will create the same market for them as well

Sounds like a great idea, especially if it is early stuff, like the
Essentials but full colour. I know I would be interested, legal, official
versions of course.
