Re: Electrix Repeater 2.1.04 Software?



My guess is that someone didn't get fully paid for the software development yet, so they don't want to give it away at this time.  It's worth something, and it cost a lot to develop, so just because the first host company went under doesn't mean that the intellectual property holders want to forfeit everything just yet.  Another deal might be in the works, or they might want to retain ownership of concepts therein and utilize them in another project.

Imagine you made an album, and the record company went bankrupt after pressing up a few hundred copies.  Do you post the album on your website for free, or hold on to the masters and see if you can work out another deal to sell it?

but WHY? if they are not even selling it from their website?

if repeater is gone for good the software needs to be open source...so users left in the lurch can mod it.
