I would think that he's shooting himself in both feet with this practice.
As for hoping that he goes bankrupt or anything like that, I hope not. I
wouldn't wish that on anyone. However, I feel that sensibly written
complaints are valid, and I hope that, eventually, he sees the light and
does what is appropriate. If the game is made available as a stand alone
purchase, I hope he considers that a quick nickel always beats a slow dollar
when it comes to income.

Be positive! When it comes to being defeated, if you think you're finished,

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Q9 Has a New Home
Hi Dark,
I agree. Selling Q9 as a separate product might do him more good than
including it as an add-on for Leasey, but apparently he thinks
otherwise. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to care what we think and I
don't see that situation changing any time soon.
As for your feelings on the matter I'm pretty certain a lot of others
are wishing him and his business ill will right now. He said in his
most recent blog post that he has been getting a lot of hate mail over
this, and I'm not surprised. As a recipient of some of that hate mail
myself I know how nasty this community can be when something gets them
upset over something. So I wouldn't be surprised if there are others
who think as you do that are hoping Leasey fails, that Brian goes
financially bankrupt, or someone pirates his software into oblivion.
None of which are a bit realistic, but I guess if it helps quell
someone's rage to dream about such things they will.

Ultimately Q9 would do him more good as a stand alone program than just
as a
little extra addon for his Leasy thing, sinse I suspect there are far
more
potential Nvda, window eyes and supernova users who would buy Q9 as a
game
than there are Jaws users who would decide to buy Leasy based on the fact
it
comes with Q9.
no, this chap isn't part of the community, but frankly if you just go
acquiring random software and selling without a knolidge of your customer
base or what good that software might do and think you can stuff it in a
box
as a job lot and sell to your usual customers, you are a Moron indeed!
I hope he does see sense, or goes out of business, or that people pirate
the
game sinse I hate to see audiogames lost to posterity, especially for
such a
ridiculous reason as one man's short sighted greed.
Of course as I said, none of this is Philip's fault, I just wish he'd
sold
the rights to someone less scummy, or more intelligent.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
