It's one of a number of UNLICENSED products that appeared, with this
company also doing Amiga and Spectrum versions. It's a CD with
approximately 3,000 games and 10,000 SID tunes downloaded from the
Internet, with emulators and music players for Windows 
and Amiga.

The content (especially the emulators) are now very out of date. It's not
worth very much. I got mine for about half what it originally sold for, and
there are better archives out there.
