 Re: How to use JiffyDOS with switch in VICE Plus/4 emulator

JiffyDOS is still under copyright, and under US copyright law it will remain copyrighted for AT LEAST the next 70 years.

Finding JiffyDOS on a website for free does NOT mean JiffyDOS is abandoned or freeware. It only means that Doug Cotton (the original author, and current copyright holder) has not yet forced the website to remove JiffyDOS from their server.

I understand that US copyright law may differ from where you are, but the simple fact remains: when other forum members tell you that you cannot or should not distribute a particular software for some reason, their advice is probably correct. Rephrasing your question, or making comparisons to your own software, does not change US copyright law.
