Twilight was a Dutch series of monthly warez CD-ROMs and DVDs. The series ran from early 1996 until June 16, 2001.[1] In 2003, "B.G." (full name undisclosed) was convicted for copyright infringements related to the Twilight series, as well as associated violence relating to the discs' production. The court estimated he had earned approximately 1,678,215 Euro with the series in question as well as others.[2] The series was originally distributed from out of the Netherlands, but later appeared in many European countries as well.[3]
In 2012, an independently operated website called twilight-cd.com began cataloging the history of the Twilight discs.[4][5]

Als je voor 2.000 frank (50 euro) twee cd-roms kunt kopen waarop voor een twintigvoud daarvan aan software staat, moet je achterdocht toch wel worden gewekt. Denk maar aan de fameuze Twilight-cd's, die een keur aan software bevatten, variërend van Windows tot Quark Express.
