A new thought: How will new releases (such as TRM's new Lunar Blitz) be accounted for on the rarity list?
With the idea of downloadable commercial releases, rarities can change literally overnight. Today, Chronosoft's website doesn't list TMR's new titles, therefore owning them on cassette or disk would make them "extremely rare" or "prototype". But in two weeks or a month, once Chronosoft sells a few of these, it could drop down to "uncommon". If all of us (visiting this site regularly, under 30 of us) were to buy a copy, then it would be "common" even though the greater Commodore scene (thousands across the globe) more than likely does not own it.
