I would like to ask everyone who does download the CDs to then go to the Baen website, and buy what you can of the books, so that Baen and David get some return for their generosity. it perhaps the best way to keep our favority author (at least on this site) from starving and not being able to produce any more deathless prose for our enjoyment.

Except that most of the actual book links on the CD pages have been disabled.
Some of the links are still active, so it's not a wasted click.


http://baencd.freedoors.org/ still has most of the Baen CDs readable online.

The CD images are still available, but there was a problem with links to individual books within the CDs. Copyright law defines that as "creating a derivative work" which has to be specifically licensed from the publisher.
