Software of the Month Club (USA) - List
From Redump Wiki
Software of the Month Club was a monthly subscription shareware service in USA.[1]
Notes:
- Titles are harmonized with the following considerations:
- A "Volume" number is indicated on most disc labels, so is included in the entry title (when known).
- Date is indicated on earlier discs, but not later discs, so is NOT included in the primary entry title, but is included in the secondary "foreign" entry title when known (example).
- Previous to the CD-ROM releases, the subscription was floppy disks.
- Multiple discs / editions (none, Family Forum, Kids Korner, etc) were often included in the same volume.
- Software of the Month Club's logo is also on "Software for the Fun of It!" edition discs (some of which are dumped in redump), but not listed on this wiki page.
