Kit & Daryl, plus anyone else who'd like to comment:

What and how big a role does software piracy play in the development and
distribution of Atari 8bit software?  What software protection schemes are
the current rage, and how does that affect the ability to successfully market
(and make money off of) Atari software?  I had heard that piracy was the prima
primary reason new titles were not being developed for the Atari 8bit.

Thanks for your replies!
