Looks like they are still maintaining the MAME ROM sets, but nothing else. None of the torrents for C64/Amiga games, or ATARI XL/ST games, or all of the older weird computer systems (Amstrad), or old retro consoles (TurboGrafx, Neo Geo, ATARI Jaguar/Lynx), or Daphne games like Dragon's Lair.

I feel like a large part of gaming history was lost when that site closed down.
