Any info and/or >experience with either would be helpful thanks. I was offering 2 DVD set (3,4,5man tbs), a 5 man DVD set (3,4,5,some 6 man tbs), and a 10 DVD Dual Layer set (total of 85gb of tablebases, 6 man only) The highest price was $15 or $20 plus shipping... I was only charging for the price of media and packaging materials. The prices from Convekta and Chessbase are just insane for packaging up Eugene's work... Mine are the Nalimov bases that can be downloaded for free at: ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt Peter
