The Market Will Decide[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#4)
by Anonymous User on Fri Apr 11, 2008 at 09:25:52 AM PDT

Of course Creative has every right to do whatever they like with their products. They can and should put whatever limits that they like in their software. However, the market will decide whether or not acting the way that they have was a good business decision. For the most part, unfortunately memories are short, and this will blow over. In my case, I haven't purchased a CD ever since the RIAA started suing its customers, and I have not purchased ANY Sony product ever since they passed out their root-kit. If you don't like a company's prices or policies, DON'T BUY THEIR PRODUCTS.
