treated like a thief[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#29)

"Needless to say, I won't be purchasing any more Macromedia products in the future if they continue to run their software registration process in this manner. It's one thing to charge as much as they do for their software (which is flawed beyond belief), but it's disgraceful to treat honest, paying customers like common street hoods." How come people object to software companies that treat them like street hoods, but continue to flock to places like CostCo, where they are treated like shoplifters? Sure, checking my receipt against the one item in my hand will cut down on theft, but once I've paid for it, why do I have to show them anything? It's the same thing.
