A word to the wise

This site is not about piracy.

If a file is not approved for download, that’s because we don’t have permission from the appropriate copyright holders yet. If you want to help, the right way is to go and search out their contact details, and ask for permision.

Putting the files on your own webspace and adding a download link from this page? That is the wrong way to help.

Now what you put on your own site is your own business. But what goes on worldofsam is my business, and if pages appear to promote piracy then it puts the whole thing at risk. I have removed the links - please do not do that again.

In general, no, but it depends which file. Check exactly what was written by the author in the “Copyrights: Granted” link (if it links to the PD node then you’re clear to go). The text, screenshots and general infrastructure of the site are copyrighted; please do not duplicate them on your own site.
