A fella at work mailed me this, essentially it's a cheap digital distribution for "classic" games. Still in beta but may well be worth keeping an eye on to see how it goes.
Sounds like yet another way to sell you stuff you probably already owned for more money. Probably cheaper to buy the disks off ebay.
This is what I will term the lucasarts effect where a company continually issues bundle packs containing it's good back catalogue (in the case of lucasarts that's arguably because their recent games have been shit with a capital J for JarJar) for as much money as it can get away with over and over again and doesn't let anything enter the public domain.
Steam is doing this now I've noticed tho due to liscencing deals a lot of the interesting stuff isn't available in this country. This lot might run foul of that too.
