This is NOT always the case. Often software is published in STart
that is public domain or Shareware. STart always states if a program
falls into one of those categories. Aegis Animator does.

Cheap?? Have you ever looked at the European ST magazines? They are
far superior to STart, and a LOT cheaper. I paid $8 for ST Format,
WITH disk and found it much more interesting and useful than the
$15 I paid for the Feb. issue of STart.. In fact, at one store I
visited in Cleveland, the owner was selling so many European magazines
over American mags that he stopped carrying all but Current Notes
(which is also good, IMHO).
Heck, for the price of two STarts w/disk, I could go out and BUY a
real program, not a collection of programs of which 1 might be useful
occassionally..
