You don't think it's right to charge for a demo. I get that much. But then, nobody is forced to buy the demo. It's not as if it's a condition of buying the full game later. If people CHOOSE to buy the $10 demo, why is there any beef at all?
And Leto, wtf is your rant about Costco? Again, it's not like it's the only place to shop. If it isn't worth the cheaper prices at Costco for the cost of membership, there's probably a K-Mart or Walmart nearby that will rip you off even more in the long run. That's just business. *boggle*
You pay for services. You can't expect to GET paid for using a service. That makes no sense at all. That's like me saying, $75 for a pair of Nike's? Fuck that! They should pay me to walk around in their shoes... it's advertising! $4 for a box of Wheaties? Bullshit! They should pay ME to eat their cereal and show people it's worth having.
Seriously... it makes exactly that little sense.

And..... I agree with you! It, however, makes great sense. In fact, my father made me return a nike t shirt that I got for him because he didn't want to advertise their product for free. You see, he didn't want to bend over. So, ya, it's a rant, and a well founded one. No, I don't have to buy the stuff or frequent the places such as I mentioned, nor do I have to pay $50 admin to get that STB (they caved and gave to me gratis) so I don't. So I rant.
what's wrong with that?
