could anyone please please mail me some software on floppy; all public domain stuff, no infringement / piracy intended! Im hesitant to lay out a heck load of money for SD solutions, as in not sure il gel with making tracks on either machine, just yet.
And hankering for a little llamatron on amiga too! 
Can happily pay for your floppies, your time, and the trouble.
Cheers

or if anyone could point me in the direction of someone who has such an abiliy, please send them my way or me theirs! x
What are you looking for exactly? I have floppies and also have Amiga demos from Amiga Format and Amiga Power. I even have some cross-platform ones (Amiga/ST) if you mean you want them. Lol.
i am after aegis sonix for amiga, and a few other bits and pieces. I have just bought some solution for amiga, but am still looking for atari things, such as colourspace, M, and a few midi softwares
anyone? looking to aqcuire a floppy of the FB01 editor and of maxYmyser for Atari ST, if anyone can accomodate such a request.
Seriously, cash for making floppies. Easy money!
I have never used an Atari but after some reading it looks like they had two drive types, a 360 KB and a 720 KB and can read MS DOS format disks. If yours supports 720 KB disks you could get a USB Floppy drive and format up your own.
The USB Drive will need to support DD disks, The TEAC FD-05PUB appears to and there are a number on ebay.
I just formatted a disk (1.44 MB with the hole covered) to 720 KB under Windows 7 using format720.exe from http://www.denispetrov.com/?page_id=3 with a TEAC FD-05PUB USB floppy drive.
Does the Atari have an OS built into ROM? All the above was found out with some web research. I don't have an Atari so cannot test any of the above.
Good Luck.

the atari does have built in ROM OS yeah,
thanks for the advice, I may just do that; I asked here first because really. if I can grab a couple of disks for a few quid, it will quickly become clear whether i will actually use the amiga and atari for musical purposes, at which point i will probably buy some more convinient SD based solution to file transfer. However, not really wanting to buy a drive or Sd solution and then immediately sell the computers!
You made a 720kb floppy? get the FB01 sound editor on there, mail it over (il pay of course) and il test it!
I thought it would be fairly easy to get someone on a forum dedicated to chipmusic to do this kind of thing. show a brother some support you chip cats!
