: In 2005 Bungie told Claude Errera that he could put up all of the original
: Marathon content for free download and redistribution (with the exception
: of the CD audio tracks from the original M1 CD, which Alex Seropian has
: asked not be distributed). See trilogyrelease.bungie.org . Since then
: we've all been distributing Marathon content with impunity and wild
: abandon.
: However, Claude never got a specific legally-worded license from Bungie,
: despite several requests for one over the years. So basically all we have
: to go on, legally speaking, is Claude's word that Bungie said it's OK, and
: the fact that Bungie is clearly aware of what's going on and hasn't
: complained about it yet (IIRC they've even linked to it on a few
: occasions).
: To be safe, you should probably assume noncommercial/attribution, but
: otherwise, go wild.
Excellent. This is exactly the information I needed. Now I guess it's time to go back to my old website and retool everything to make it crazy-easy for people to use my crazy-crappy old school textures. :D
