4. Where and how do I buy Discworld CDs and CD-ROM games?
Here are some other 'multimedia' items that are directly related to the
Discworld/Pratchett universe:
o The "Discworld" CD-ROM games by Perfect Entertainment/Psygnosis.
There are now three Discworld CD-ROM games. The first one is
called "Discworld", and is available for PC, Macintosh, Sony
Playstation and Saturn.
The second one (generally regarded as the easiest of the three as
the puzzles can usually be solved simply by having a good knowledge
of the Discworld books) was released as "Discworld 2: Missing,
presumed...?" in the UK, and "Discworld 2: Mortality Bytes" in the
USA (no, I don't know why either), and is available for PC and Sony
Playstation.
The third game, "Discworld Noir", which has now been released is
in the style of 'film noir' and features new characters and
storylines.
These games should be available from most major mail-order houses,
on-line Web sites, and normal computer stores.
For more information on these games (including the walkthroughs)
consult the game FAQ or the games pages on L-Space Web:

-- The second source for the Discworld CD is the UK-based mail
order company "Cheap or What! CDs" (formerly: PastelBlue).

o The "Soul Music" soundtrack to the Channel 4 animated series.
Meanwhile, this CD featuring extended versions of all the songs is
distributed to the shops through the normal channels, but in a
pinch you can buy it directly for UKP 13.99 (plus UKP 1.50 p&p)
