If i remember correctly BeOs demo disk was 10$. Nothing new.
Yeah, but back then most people didn't have broadband access so it made sense to distribute CDs. This was changed in 2000 with BeOS PE wich was both downloadable and distributed with CDs (in magazines and such).
Charging money for shipping a demo CD is understandable for a small company. But they shouldn't make money off it, therefore it makes sense to make a torrent available.
