I can verify that it's a total fraud.  VAMPS basically consists of all your
favorite tunes irreparably ruined by pasting in extra tracks in the wrong key
and other 'psychoacoustic' stuff.  You might enjoy some of them, but I
personally don't consider any of the disks worth the materials they're made
of.

There's also the matter of VAMPS disks including a sector-edited version of
ProDOS 8 which Dr. Tom calls "FREEOS" and has removed the copyright messages
from.  If only Apple Legal cared enough to kill this moron :)
