Paying for a database of games just always confused me. If you have an interest in a particular player or event, you can probably download them for free. And what posible use could you come up with for 2.33 million games anyhow? Quality? How could there _posibly_ be a reasonable percent of quality games in a collection of that size? 98% of any given feild is a load of crap in my opinion anyhow. Hey, I got no way to know not having seen the thing, but to me, they appear to be selling quantity... Who knows, you might just love it. Pete
