Hello all.  My apologies for posting this query here if it is not the best
place to do so -- it seems to be the most appropriate at the moment.  

I am interested in any users of some of the 'older' non-multimedia CDROM's
being able to inform me as whether the 'data' on the disks is accessible
as 'normal' (non encrypted or whatever).  Specifically, I can think of one
called 'The Bible Library' CDROM.  As well, there may be some ascii-ish
encyclopedia CDROM's out there.  I figure that it any of you can confirm
the format of these disks as being 'readable/usable' without driving programs
that I will be able to accomplish two things: cheap CDROM's that will also
run on an Amiga system.

Your help is appreciated.

Dare
