Many of the CPC disk/tape images I have seen contain content which would not have been on original media - introductory material, game cheats and so on.
Has there been any effort put into cataloging and preserving clean images of original media - perhaps a database similar to those maintained by No-Intro (http://no-intro.org)?
For some it was quite a hard work to hack games. I guess some won't miss a copy protection ;) However, check out the French ressources, they more often have both - a hacked and an original DSK.
I'm not sure what you mean bakery2k. There is a FTP directory of stuff which has been cracked, though all the stuff which is in ADATE (??), should be original programs, materials.
CPC-Power was a great resource of material and it was collecting everything about what each program would have, so in many cases there would have a modified disc, tape, original disc, etc. Sadly the Hack >:( which occurred months ago has done quite a bit of damage. :(
Gamebase CPC by Loïc DANEELS only contains original games.
