The rights to RUN magazine was sold off to Creative Micro Designs.
They started up Commodore World at about the same time. They also
acquired the ReRUN disks and other disks from RUN.

Later on, CMD sold off the subscription base of Commodore World to
GO64 magazine but not the rights to the content or articles in
previous issues. The rights to the articles in RUN magazine and
Commodore World magazine have been given to each of the individual
authors of those articles.

So, for anyone to publish an article from RUN magazine or Commodore
World magazine, it is possible provided permission is given from the
original author of the article in question.

As for the ReRun disks, those cannot be provided for free downloading
anywhere as they are still available for sale through Click Here
Software Co. CHS obtained all the original masters for the ReRUN
disks and manuals and is able to produce them. This also includes all of 
the other disks that RUN magazine made available such as RUN Productivity
Pack, GamePack, RUNWorks, etc.
