I have thought about selling some of my software that I'm not using. One bad thing is that if it's a year old or more, there's lots of updates out and it's almost out-dated.

Regardless of the amount of torrent users, there are still people that want and need legal copies of software. Getting free software for home use is about like burning a copy of a movie for home use; I don't think most people are really concerned about that. It's when you start using the software for a business or making money that the getting non-freeware free becomes really bad.......... but that's just my opinion.

I've got a bunch of old programs that are still on floppies. Don't know why I've kept them since I only have one very old machine that even uses them. Remember Wing Commander, Blake Stone, After Dark, Word Star, to mention a few? LoL!

You might do better just to make someone a super deal on them or just give them away. I've given away some older programs just so someone could be using them (and yes, they were removed from my machine).
