I don't want to start any of the pseudo-legal arguments that came about with 
BREAKOUT.ACC last time (God forbid!), but I have a question concerning things
like the COLDBOOT.PRG posted last week:

What is the status of software distributed by subscription on magazine disks
like STart and Compute! for the ST?  Is it public domain?  Is it illegal for
my brother-in-law, who has a subscription to both STart and Compute, to send
me a copy of the disk?

Constructive comments only.  If you must flame, please send them to rick@ncsc,
as he hardly *ever* gets any mail....
