Actually, if they are not violating any specific copyright laws, just
providing something otherwise widely available at a price, I don't
understand the problem either. Apparantly, if they haven't gone out of
business, their service is needed. I have to say that FTP-ing is often
frustrating (you don't know what is available where) and EXTREMALLY
time consuming (in a year, I have been able to connect anonymously
during the day ONCE - it's always busy - who's got the time?). If they
can deliver something I need without aggrevation and at a reasonable
price, I'll go for it.
