Re: Archiving old magazines on website

Hello Raj,

> Of course now I don't *remember* who is the current owner. But I do

I know that CMD obtained the rights to RUN (and therefore Commodore
Magazine which RUN had obtained).  Since that point, I would imagine
that the rights have either passed to Maurice or possibly either GO64!
or Centsible Software.

Centsible Software is reportedly the place to obtain back issues, and
GO64! fullfilled the remaining subscriptions for Commodore World after
CMD ceased publication.

So, I would venture to guess that the current RUN copyrights probably
rest with one of the 3 people / companies mentioned above.

You can find information about the 3 possible owners at:

http://www.centsible.com/

As for my two cents worth, RUN and Commodore Magazine were my favorite
publications.  Compute! and Compute's Gazzette were also right up
there at the top.  I still have a large collection of these magazines
that I read and reread frequently to gleam new pieces of wisdom from
their text.  It's amazing that every time I read them, I pick out new
pieces of information that I missed the last 20 or 30 times ;-)

I for one would favor a legal online source of all the articles and /
or disk issues for the above mentioned publications.

For those interested in obtaining permission, I would contact the
sources mentioned above.
