Hi,

please consider this question not too stupid to ask..

Having grown up with both the C64 and the Amiga, I always wondered why most of the cracking groups (with a few exceptions like Legend, Fairlight etc.) were big on the Commodore 64 but I did not see cracktros of them on the Amiga.
Ive got my Amiga late but had some good years. As the same with the C64, later I got more interested in cracktros on the Amiga too. I wonder why some of the big players there, werent on the Amiga for example ESI, Hotline, Triad, Genesis and Ikari.
Browsing older cracktros from the Amiga late 80s/ early 90s there were groups like Unit A, Angels, Vision Factory, Black Monks, Horizon, World Of Wonders, Quartex and Defjam which I never saw cracktros on the C64. Was there anything that would separate the groups activities on the machines besides the CPUs, what are your thoughts ?

Best Regards
