They are hardly likely to tell you are they?


The people who have copyright on the format DO NOT want to make an amiga 
version, or give amiga people information about the format.

Therefore the only way to get it to work on the amiga is to hack the code 
on another machine. Possibly a macintosh since it uses a motorola processor.
In other words someone would have to reverse engineer it, and thats not 
something you would like to advertize all over the place. Unless AT does 
it of course, lots of publicity :)
