the new B.net features full version downloads of registered products that use B.net, excluding War2 Bnet edition and Diablo 1. Not like there's a huge demand for them or anything, just curious if anyone knows why they aren't available? I'm really surprised with War2 BNE, it has a CD key and everything.

Heh, no WC1.. But D1 and War2, for sure; both games are Battle.net 1.0 compliant.
They should be Battle.net 2.0 compliant. I've said this many times, War2 can be standalone since it has a CDKey, and D1 should be given for free if you own D2/LoD, similar to how BW is free if you have SC.

Warcraft 2 should certainly be there, it has the CD key and is perfectly playable on battle.net, even after 14 years. The only reason I'd imagine they keep it off is because of compatibility issues with modern computers.
No - it uses the original engine; the multiplayer layer was rewritten to support Battle.net, a few bugs were squashed and the sounds were resampled(and the Eye of Kilgore given a sound).
