I think back when 1.8 was out there was a package to read Sid Files (I'm
on linux currently).
I've fallen back to using http://www.lizardtech.com/downloads/category/
-> Geoexpress Command line utilities to decode sid to geotiff.
Not sure exactly how you could do that on a mac - maybe build a
linux/windows VM to do the decompression. I hope at some point sid
becomes available again - I wished I had to skill to make that happen.

I need to be able to display MrSID files made available by the state GIS
department. I had them running on QGIS 1.8, OSX 10.6.8, but I’m not sure what
I did back then. Have searched the Web as best I can and haven’t found any
instructions for current QGIS with a current OS. Can anyone help?
Seems to me at one point I saw some directions for getting 1.4 to read MrSID,
but I can’t find them. I’m doing GIS volunteer work for Mass Audubon Society,
and a lot of their raster stuff is MrSID. (They use ArcGIS; I can’t afford it.)
