One question maybe worth asking: "How did they go about finding the various companies and each company's Apple II software products?"
Researchers and users have it easier now that a larger amount of data can be online compared to way back then......assuming the online data is credible to begin with.
The Apple II book is worth a start though in case anyone is adding more entries to the related Apple II hash files that MAME works with via user interface.
/hash/apple2.xml /hash/apple2_cass.xml /hash/apple2gs.xml
And in case you (I was IBM software user myself) were an Apple II user back in the days, 4AM's work is worth following.

He and a few others unprotect the various protected original diskettes of Apple II products without adding the old school hacker crack screen credits. 4AM's primary focus is working on the Apple II software that was not the audience popular software. A fair amount of his work might be some off beat software that many users never heard of or worked with.
