The vault doesn't run on donations. It's built to run cheap — one tiny server at the edge, no ads, no tracking, no venture capital in a trenchcoat — and it stays free whether or not anyone ever chips in.

So think of this purely as a tip jar. If the vault's made your collection happier and you'd like to say thanks, a coffee's worth is genuinely appreciated — but only ever at your own discretion. If not? Enjoy the vault, tell a collector friend, and log those demo discs. That's more than enough.
