Over recent months, many free Mame Rom download directories have disappeared.  If you look hard enough, you can most probably find a good download site.   This can be very time consuming and may not always guarantee a result. 

WIth my recent experience using rom burners, I still prefer to download roms direct off the internet.  I unfortunately received a bad set of discs, using the rom burner service.  I'm quite sure the majority of the rom burner community is genuine.  Sadly, I found the reality of loosing my money to one fraudster, too much of a risk to use the burner service again.  I recommend to use this as an absolute last resort, if you have no luck finding any rom download sites.  Pay by visa or credit, so if you do receive bad discs, you can cancel the transaction at your bank.

If you come across any sites that have a good list of roms to download, please let me know, so I can test the site out, then post it.  More links can be found on my hot retro link list.  Also please let me know if any of the links on my site are dead or broken, so I can remove them.  Any input is very much appreciated.  I can be contacted on  mark@2prfm.com
