ClearAV tries to bribe me

I recently ordered an item on January 13, 2008 from Amazon.com. The shipper was ClearAV.
The Shipping estimate was: January 14, 2008 - January 15, 2008
The Delivery estimate was:January 17, 2008 - January 22, 2008

On January 23, 2008 I wrote the following as feedback on Amazon.com

The estimated delivery date was "January 17, 2008 - January 22, 2008". It's currently the 23rd. According to the tracking info, the item didn't leave the factory until yesterday, the 22nd. I'm growing inpatient, if you want speedy service, go somewhere else. Usually I get packages ahead of time, not with this shipper though, with them I have to wait overtime!

ClearAV then emailed me, offering me a bribe. I was to delete my feedback and they would refund my SHIPPING cost. Obviously I'm not the kind of person that can be bought, plus I don't believe in this kind of under-handed scheme by companies to try to get only positive feedback.

In my opinion, this bribe makes ClearAV an unethical company. They shouldn't be trusted, and I don't think anyone should order anything from them.

Thank you 20th Century Fox

20th Century Fox is now offering their DVDs in an "easy to put on the computer" digital format.

The first of these new DVDs is the Family Guy movie Blue Harvest, which is a Star Wars parody.

I just bought this movie today on DVD, and here are some pictures:
And here is what pops up on the screen when you put the disc into your computer.

How could you Apple?

Apple, Inc. released 5 new applications for the iPod Touch. Now here's the low part, they are charging $20 for existing iPod Touch owners! People that buy an iPod Touch now, get it for the same price it was at launch, and they get the new applications for free.

It would be one thing if the new iPod Touch was $20 more expensive, but they aren't. Which can only conclude that Apple doesn't care about their existing customers. They only want new customers. What they don't understand is that these devious under-handed tactics will cause their current customers to go away and stop buying Apple products. Those that paid the $20 for these extra applications are stupid and are only helping to feed into Apple's greedy selfishness.

I think everyone should give Apple feedback and tell those "fatcats" just how you feel about this evil corporate scheme they're doing.

Punishing early adopters by making them pay for something new customers get for free just isn't right! It isn't about the money, it's about the principal of it. I'd have no problem paying $20 for this update IF it was reflected in the price of the new iPod Touch (meaning everyone pays). But since it isn't, and since owners of the iPhone get basically the same update for free, I think Apple is being very underhanded to demand that early adopters of the iPod Touch pay $20 for this update.
