Legal Questions

[fish]

I couldn't find any info on rom-world.com. But I read that you don't have access to protected games. Granted. What I would like to know is what the leaglity of the games you do provide. Lets take MAME roms for example.

Trying to clear up my concious,

No, dont worry about legalities, as long as you dont start selling them then nobody cares..

What if I gave them away in a in a charity raffle?

It's all technically illegal, but there are different degrees. Xbox, PS2, and GC games are a no-no because they grab attention and anger a species known as the lawyer.

Rest assured that you will not be prosecuted or sued for downloading anything on this site. It all depends on how you use it.

Either way, I doubt anyone will care.

Maybe I could just give a how to document and link to the site.

Is there any roms that you know are free of any confussion, or could I just buy a whole bunch of cheap nes games and then give them as "for legalatie purposes".

They all might be considered illegal if you dont own the orginal cart, the worst that can happen is they'd just get took of you, thats it.....Its only web sites with ESA games on them have to worry, and still they only get shut down.......
