Doesn't Fileplanet do this in effect anyway? Where you have the option on the site to 'mail a cd' to yourself with the files you want. Not to mention the plethora of Gaming magazines that regularly have mods on their cover CDs.

I think the authors original point was to distribute the mod and cover the costs of distrobution, not to make a profit. Some people game via slower net connections and it is not very easy to obtain a 200 plus meg file via the internet. What I'd rather see is some officially sponsored (valve) method of distrobuting mods on cd where one might get a smathering of mods on one CD. Come to think of it, isn't this already being done via such places as fileshack where you can "make your own cd" by picking the files you want and for a small fee recieve them on CD. I believe HL mods and patches are a part of this program already... _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
