Title: Amstrad tape archive?
Post by: Spurious on 04:09, 27 August 16
Hi
I'm a new forum member (from Australia) that recently picked up a nice CPC464.  It seems that amstrad tape files are harder to come across that collections of DSK's.
Do anybody know where there is a nice archive of tape files available?

CPC-POWER (http://www.cpc-power.com) has around 160 Pages worth of programs available on Tape (each page has 20 programs on it, except the last page), just click on the 13253 SOFTWARES to bring up the Database and under the Tape icon, click "yes", that will display all the programs available on Tape.

Excellent, thanks for that

For anybody else interested I also found ftp://ftp.barnyard.co.uk/ftp.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/cpc/ADATE/tape/ to be a nice resource.

Yes the ADATE archive is a collection of Digitized Tapes & Discs aiming at Preserving the old original media (including the format used on it).
