Default Paying for roms

Some sites require (no link please ) you to pay for certain roms. In my case, i am trying to dl neo geo cd roms however I am required to pay for dl these roms.

so my question is any one of you did pay for downloading roms? If so , is it worth it? I want to check with you guys before using my hard earn money to pay to access these roms.

thanks.

Search harder.

NeoCD emulators use ISO's, not roms.

I am aware that roms doesn't run on Neo Geo CD however some sites classified neo geo cd games in as sub-directory as 'roms'.

Yes, I think I can comprehend that. I was just making sure that if you were going to pay for an actual ROM for NeoCD, you wouldn't be disappointed when it was a waste of money.

Do you understand what i mean?

Almost all ROM/ISO sites charge for NeoGeo CD ISOs, whether it be donation or straight forward paying. It is never worth it to pay for an illegal copy of something, that is against the law (x2 for charging and for distributing ;P)

Quoted for the Truth. How ironic is paying for something illegal?

For gods sake! Why on earth would you pay for ROMs/ISOs?

If you charge for roms, that means you gave out an address for the paying or your paypal account, both of which allowing the cops to trace you. That's real smart.

Thanks for the bump. The point that they can be found has been echoed enough and it's time to close.
