To change the subject slightly, has anyone out there had any good/bad
experiences distributing shareware? I'm particularly interested in the
level of user-response programmers have had in  various countries.

Australia apparently has a bad reputation as far as piracy etc goes,
compared to the US and Europe, and after distributing a few programs
nationaly with absolutely no response I'm prepared to admit it (they were
good programs too - believe me!). How goes it in other regions?
