Back in January, on the verge of Macworld Expo, Rogue Amoeba (makers of Audio Hijack Pro and Airfoil) introduced an interesting system for distributing software on good ol’ CDs: Live Disc. Here’s the lowdown on its usefulness, as our own Derik wrote six months ago:
The application actually takes a look at the contents of the disc, compares the version number that's resident, and will download the latest version transparently when the user either double clicks or drag and drop installs any presented application. You get the latest and greatest not just the day after you get the disc, but even months, or years down the line.
It’s totally free and open source, but the good folks at Rogue Amoeba would appreciate a mention if you do take advantage of it. Download it and read instructions here.
