I dunno fi this fits in Sims or Arcade...so i'll ask here...

[TheFanboy]

Ok, like is aid in the topic...i dunno where this would fit...as it's a general question, that has been playing on my mind these past few days. It is totally hypothetical (as arcades here arre too cheap to have more than one mix in an arcade lol).

I know that on the other threads it is said that you can't put a Stepmania "Machine" into an arcade without it being illeagal.

But what if the arcade was to actually buy the mixes, (like say an arcade owns the chipsets, cd's and marquees, for a 1st, 5th and 8th mix), would they be able (using a machine they had legally bought) to use Stepmania in a machine, as long as theyONLY usd songs that were in the mixes they actually owned?

I was just wondering if this was a viable question to ask here...if not i'll ask wherever you tell me to ask...

No, it would be illegal.

Stepmania is free and they would charging money to play on the cabinet.

They would be making a profit off of something that is supposed to be free, even if it is just the program.

Belongs in the Simulator forum, this deals with the legality.

That would be cool though except for the illegality of it...
Wait a minute! I know a few people who are making a SM machine, the have agot a good monitor, and the PC inside the cabinet, I've heard it's going well, I'm waiting for the pics at the moment
