Do not copy this disk! Copyrighted!

Post by Mike Jackson »

Hi all,
I was at the local Dollar Tree (a dollar store) and was digging around looking at some of old TV Westerns that are sold on DVDs for $1. While digging around, I found a CD containing thousands of fonts. I read the printed information on the CD cover and got a chuckle out of the copyright notice. At $1 (retail), who'd want to spend the time and blank disk to copy one?

I never even opened the disk. I figure they are all just those terrible shareware fonts you can get free on the Internet.

Goldie....for a buck even I would have bought one...and then regretted the time I spend opening it and going through it!! What a joke and I'm sure all the contributors are getting their share of the royalties too.

Hey...don't knock it...I've been selling copies of Golden Era stuff for a dollar a piece for a long time. Keeps me in beer money.

Raymond,

You charged me a buck and a half, and I had to buy the beer!
