	Curmudgeon Gamer
		Dan's GameTap review seemed to be giving a sly wink to downloading ROMs of games you can't find elsewhere legally, and with this reader comment in mind, I was saying that if you want certain games you're just going to have to pay the piper.
		I think that faulting GameTap for what games they don't offer is a weak criticism, and said as much.
		Even if GameTap doesn't explicitly promise "every game ever made playing bug-free on my PC for less than $15 a month" to the customer, then their marketing certainly implies something pretty close to it.
