RE: The Software Piracy Chronicles of Slobberchops – Part One
It was way more interesting than now. Computers were not mainstream then, just for geeks. Its boring now in comparison.
I had an Amiga like most others. They were great for music.
You should check out this then: http://ftp.modland.com/pub/modules/
It's an ancient FTP server with user created music mods from back in the day. You can listen to them using Renoise (The free demo version is GREAT).
The best part is that these music mods contain tidbits of information that the artists have added, some go back to the late eighties, early nineties.
Watch some examples in this old post of mine, I've included some videos there:

This is using Openmpt instead of Renoise, since that tracker is open-source.
