The problem with this site is all the software seems to be in .adf format so instead of having an application to transfer you have to put a floppy in the machine. What's the point in that?

It makes it easier to use with emulators. Considering the age of some of the games, emulators are likely to be the easiest way for most people to play the game.

A RISC OS program that could convert an ADF file to a normal directory of the disc's contents would be useful. I don't think there is any easy way to use ADF files on RISC OS machines.

There's DImager as Monkeyson pointed out but what I mean is that you have to do it through a floppy disc.

Also (assuming RISC OS is being used) using adf's with A310em can be slower than dragging across application directories from RISC OS 4 etc to A310em.
