Haematophilia within BDSM, refers to the sexual interest in blood. The fetish can be satisfied in many ways, usually through visual exposure. Though, ingestion of, submersion in and withdrawal of blood can all be ways to fulfill one's desires related to the fetish. A common misconception about haematophilia is that it can be triggered by period blood, this is in almost all cases, inaccurate.

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
