Do you think that old dos-based games should be freeware nowdays?

I have problems downloading from HOTU Do you guys have?

Just follow their "One download at a time" policy and you should be fine. If you download more than one file at a time from them they ban you for a few hours.

When I try to download file it says "Oops, error has occured" or something similar. My friend tried that too and same error came.

are these sites really legal? I always thougth that abandonware is often tolerated by the rights owner but strictly speaking illegal? i mean the got civ2, c&c, ....

well anyway, if it's really legal it sure is a great site

As I said, abandonware is a huge grey zone. If it's legal depends on the country you're living in.

Well its not really legal, but almost noone cares, and some companies have actually made some of their games free.

Seriously, can you download there any game you want? I keep getting all the time "Oops an error has occured" message.
