		<description>Isn&#039;t LGP just way overpriced? Only die hard Linux fanatics are going to pay 30€+ for a game they could get Windows version for 10€ from Steam, since most Linux gamers dual boot. You guys should just drop the resellers and sell the games directly as download versions to compete with more realistic prices.

Just opinion.</description>

		<description>A reseller can set any price they like. Tux Games is just another reseller, competing against them is expected {:-)

We do have a Tux on the box, look on the spine at the top, when the games are side on, on a shelf, Tux will be seen as the thing right at the top of the box {:-)</description>

		<description>Greetings
I wonder if a future reseller buys from you a lot of titles so he gets the 40+% discount, what permissions does he have later when seling the games? Can he decide the price by himself? Can he sell them more expensive or cheaper than LGP or TuxGames?

thanks in advance
Apopas

BTW Why don&#039;t you have a penguin on you games boxes? There is one on the disk, but noone on the cover box :)</description>

		<description>WRT your first response: Thing is, isn&#039;t it up to the creator of the work to decide how much to charge for it. You know the value of yourown work, and it is human nature for others to UNDERvalue it. If the consumer doesn&#039;t like the price, they vote with their wallet and don&#039;t pay. In the end a fair compromise is reached that people are willing to pay, and that will make enough money for the creator. Either that or the demand wasn&#039;t sufficient for the industry.
If you let the consumer set the price, it will tend towards zero, because people as a whole don&#039;t think longterm.

But as for your comment specifically to me, yes of course you can. You can play it at the same time too, there is no limit on that. You just have to be sure that you trust that person with your copy, as once they have it installed, they can, using the keytool, change the email address, request a new password, and then your game is their game. If you trust them, feel free, its just the same as lending the boxed copy in that way. We aren&#039;t trying to stop people lending, we&#039;re trying to stop people from putting it online {:-)</description>

		<description>@Max: &quot;I understand that you want and need to make money and I can’t understand how people constantly copy games, download music and movies and so on…&quot;

Well I don&#039;t know what country you are from, but it&#039;s a right in mine, (Spain). Well, It doesn&#039;t count for software but anyway, we&#039;ve created the biggest library in the world (Internet) and I think we should use it. And then you decide how to contribute each company on your way. I can download games but I prefer to support the industry and above all the developers because I can, because I want.

@Michael: 
There&#039;s s something I haven&#039;t fully understood. If I want to lend a copy of yours to a friend, can I do it? Even if it means that meanwhile I can&#039;t play.</description>

		<description>It definitely helps. The squealing occurs when the framerate goes too high. You could also just add any (optional) framerate limiter. Guess VSYNCH would be the most logical though.</description>
