their previous press release caused some moaning about press releases,
which caused several people connected to Veoh to appear, apologise,
and provide a link to the yahoo group for Veoh.
The best way they can fix the current mailing list strife is to
concede that their mailing list database is impossibly tainted, and to
trash it and start again with a fully compliant opt-in and opt-out system.
I guess that would be a brave move, considering at the product beta
release stage they need to spread the word to those who are genuinely
interested, but because the database has lots of people in it who dont
want to be there, I think its a measure that should be taken for the
sake of their reputation.
As for the reality behind anti-spam legislation, I believe people who
are sending thousands of emails occasionally, as opposed to millions
every day, are more likely to suffer the negative effects of annoying
the hell out of potential customers, than legal penalties.
