From what I heard over 2000 mods have been taken down from Nexus by the authors due to being stolen and put up on the workshop as paid mods. Several prominent mod makers have also stopped working on mods because of it.
To say this is a mess is an understatement.I AM the evil bastard!

Newell even replied to this, elsewhere, as he was on a flight when the story/controversy broke."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons. Nobuo Uematsu used Crayola Crayons to paint the Sistine Chapel." - Jeremy Jahns (re: "Dancing Mad")

Came in here to post this. Probably for the best that it's gone.
That didn't take long. Newell got raked over the coals because of this (understandably). In a thread on ...*ahem*...that site that I "red," He had a big Q&A session, where one thing he claimed was that the costs of all of that incoming email had cost them some preposterous amount of money -- something like 10x the amount of money brought in by the mod service. To his credit, when he was told by users in the thread that they had been banned on Steam forums for complaining about this by the mods, he took action and had the banned accounts reinstated, saying that he doesn't want the boards to be censored.
Oh well. It's gone now. C'est lat vie, C'est la morte (sp?)"For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons. Nobuo Uematsu used Crayola Crayons to paint the Sistine Chapel." - Jeremy Jahns (re: "Dancing Mad")
