Please excuse the cross-posting.

We are currently exploring new methods of service delivery in our
children's and YA areas. We are looking for products that are available
through subscription online, rather that through the traditional CD ROM
format. There seem to be so many conflicts caused amongst the various CD
products and staff seem to spend an inordinate amount of time restarting
frozen computers. We find that our online products work much more
seamlessly.

However we are having trouble finding "fun" software, especially for
younger children. The free online versions of popular games like
"Franklin the Turtle" seem to inevitably contain some sort of sales
pitch for CD ROM products.

If anyone has found suitable vendors, I would very much appreciate
hearing from you.

Thank you,
