First of, you never *have* to. No one forces you to break the law. You are NOT entitled to play any game you want to.
As I wrote, morally I'm fine with abandonware, while I have to accept legally it's not ok. (though the above expression of entitlement makes the law more moral again)
So even when I purchased games that came on 5-1/4" floppies, and have no access to another floppy drive (and believe me, I've searched high and low, and come up empty), I'm not entitled to download that game I already own to play in Dosbox for nostalgia sake? Mkay. Duly noted.
For the record, I have about 50 games sitting in a closet that I can't use, due to the lack of a 5-1/4" floppy drive.
So you expect me to know your specific problem when you just write
