Good point about the press release. The key point is that we all demand mutual respect. This is a conversation as Markus points out. Cluetrain manifesto stuff through and through. Can't recommend that enough for the Veoh crew. Simply posting a press release in a group is not "conversation".

Most unfortunate Watson! It's quite obvious to me (as I track all emails by using unique  addresses for every different service) that these email addresses were  harvested directly to the video blogging group. And harvested they  were, there's no denying it, there's way to much corresponden

Dmitry, I searched my gmail outgoing folder, which I have never ever deleted anything from. No message there to anyone at veoh.com, so clearly I've never directly emailed to join that notification list. Here is what I think happened (best scenario): someone subscribed to this Yahoo! group wit
