It seems virtually impossible now to get hold of the rules legitimately without paying exorbitant sums for a rare physical copy. Is there any legitimate outlet still for the rules?
If not, does anyone know how easy it is just to use the Cortex Prime rules and give them a Firefly flavour? Or is Scum and Villainy considered to be the better choice?
Other recommendations?

The skeleton isn't hard to suss out from Cortex Prime (IIRC it's Roles + Skills, Distinctions with SFX, Hero Dice mod, flashbacks, record-based advancement) but you would have to write up all the Distinction SFX from scratch (although they're very improvisable with the existing guidelines). So it depends on how close you want to get, and how much you care about having to write your own variations of content.
