The Japanese MSX-FAN used to carry a Fandom corner, in which programs submitted by its readers were introduced to the public. Now this corner suddenly revived on the Internet.
A user called Rashell went to the trouble of unraveling the legal issues concerning redistribution of these old programs. In the end, MSX-FAN's publisher granted permission to put the material on his site, on condition that Rashell-san would also obtain permission from the original authors.
Rashell tracked down a few authors and is now distributing the material he is entitled to. Although the present site can at best be called a first attempt to get the complete Fandom collection back online, it is certainly worth taking a look at

By the way, Rashell-san is still looking for addresses of former contributors to the Fandom corner. Also, as Rashell only owns the MSX-FANs from April 1994 onwards, he is also looking for the programs from earlier issues.
