HTTPS mounts are now possible on original Spectranet hardware.
Spectranext makes publishing resources much easier: host a folder on the internet, and the cartridge can mount it over HTTPS. That is good for new software, but it creates the same kind of problem the Spectrum 128K faced: developers want to use the newer capabilities, while still reaching the widest possible audience.
If a game, tool, catalogue, or update channel only works on Spectranext, it leaves original Spectranet users behind. That is not great for developers, and it is not great for users either.
