Oversight? or something Worse?

I'm just curious why the English Bible Collection is still languishing in CP (going on five years, appx?) when it looks like many or most (or all) of those Bibles are listed as available in one of the L7 packages on the 'new to you' comparison page.

It still baffles me how a BIBLE software company can't get historic English bibles into production but can manage Shakespeare, Milton, a bunch of pagans authors, etc.

?????

    From looking at the link you provided, it appears that Bible software customers are willing to pay for Shakespeare, Milton, and a bunch of pagans authors more than for a collection of historic English Bibles (Checked to make sure my own bid was in—37 months ago). We might consider that to belong in the "Something Worse" category.

    As with other resources, once they ship in base packages, they have traditionally become available soon after for regular purchase, provided that there's no icon to the left saying "only available as part of a base package" (paraphrasing). The good news is that base package income funds these otherwise "languishing" sets
