Nice.
The part I hate about copyright rules would stop lesser (perhaps greater?) men than me.
I have about 60 old game cartridges boxed and stored. When I set up my pi I didn't install any that I don't have in the box... not really because of copyright, but because the ones I played back when are the same ones I want to get retro with now. And I was perfectly comfortable doing this because I own them.
But it doesn't work that way - as I now understand it, I am in violation because I didn't copy my own cartridges? As this makes zero logical sense to me, I no have no issue downloading and playing games I didn't own/don't have in the box of treasures.
