Yeah, we're owned by CNET Networks (www.cnet.com).
As for emails, yeah that's part of the membership but you can opt out. With
this iPod giveaway we're really after getting folks to update their online
profile data. The hope is that you will become a more engaged member of our
online community, though I personally am not sure the promotion will do that.
But it is cool I think that we chose to make Apple iPods as the main giveaway
for this promo.

Harry,
Tech Republic is a big compu-publishng outfit, mainly serving IT
people. They own, or or owned by, Zif, or ZDnet, of some such ... I'm
pretty sure. My Sis, the computer nerd, used to work for TR. I still
take the newsletter, but most of it is beyond me.
