What do you folks make of this site?

http://free-game-downloads.mosw.com/

That have a bunch of software for download. Some of it is Abandonware.
Or at least it's claimed to be Abandonware. How do we know it's
Abandonware? They have nothing on their site (that I could find) that
confirms that these are abandonware, and there are thousands of titles
there.

They want money if you want to download anything. I can understand them
wanting to cover their costs, but this seems pretty sleazy to me.

Opinions?
