Yes, but surely a piece of computer music is substantially different to a
full, published game from a (then) big company like Superior?  I mean, I've
still got loads of original Electron games that I bought when I was 12 and I
didn't write any of them!!  I just find it a little odd that someone
wouldn't have any original published copies of a game they'd written, or
even original pre-release work.

You'd be surprised. I've been contacted with quite a few queries from music 
bods who wrote stuff in both native Beebchip and also on the m5000, asking 
for copies.

Incidentally, that brings me to something else - does anyone have a 
music4000 they fancy donating to a good home please?
