Buy Sacred-texts on Disk
The Internet Sacred Text Archive on Disk includes electronic texts of a thousand of the most important books and articles ever written, including hundreds transcribed specially for sacred-texts. Years of research and scholarship went into this product: all the core texts of religion, mythology, folklore and the esoteric are on one disk. You get the full text of each book, many with footnotes and illustrations. To buy all of these books you would have to spend tens of thousands of dollars, even if you could find them: many are out of print and hard to obtain at any price. You pay just pennies a book: the CD-ROM costs just $49.95, the DVD-ROM $99.95; worldwide shipping is free when you buy direct! The new DVD-ROM has twice as much content as the 5.0 CD-ROM, and adds the ability to search by title, author and subject. The DVD-ROM is now priced as low as $39.95 per unit for quantity 10. Everything on the disks can be viewed in a standard web browser on your PC or Macintosh. Proceeds from sales of Sacred-texts on disk go to support free access to the Internet Sacred Text Archive on the web (sacred-texts.com) and development of new etexts.
You can now literally own the wisdom of the ages--all major world scriptures from the Bible to the Rig-Veda. Experience six thousand years of faith, from the oldest texts such as the Babylonian Enuma Elish and the Egyptian Book of the Dead. Includes the Bible in English, Hebrew, Greek and Latin, linked to extensive reference material, along with the Apocrypha.

No other religious studies disk is as comprehensive or well-organized.
