We play UT99 GOTY at least twice a year at our LAN-Parties.

UT99 never had a key anyways. So you could run it on multiple computers is you did a ISO mount

Two words, Rights Issues.

For those who don't speak weasel, a lot of the early Unreal stuff was a bunch of developers working together on the engine. As such, who owns what is a bit murky, so Activision...the owner of a lot of the early Unreal stuff, is making it functionally impossible to be released as source code. That doesn't stop releases like the one above, but it does mean they cannot release the thing outright. Yay legal system.
