Identi.ca Updates for 2010-10-24

  • Dear #lazyweb, can you advise on a simple “digg like” free software web app? Doesn’t need to be fancy, just logins, submissions, votes 🙂 #
  • @twitteling what, running everything in !ubuntu as root? Installing every single piece of crap from weird “anonymous” sites? #

  • ♺ @schestowitz: Odd thing: Twitter has given up on its oauth-only approach… started about 30 hours ago. Old style login works fine. #

eMusic insults customers by calling them stupid

I’ve received an email from eMusic with a change of the payment plans. It contains the following:

Starting in November all individual tracks will be priced at €0.49 instead of 1 credit, and albums will be priced as the sum of the individual tracks. Rest assured, your monthly payments will not change and you will still be able to download the same number of tracks available today, if not more, depending upon your current plan.

I’ve just sent the following customer request to eMusic:

I just received an email claiming «all individual tracks will be priced at €0.49 instead of 1 credit, and albums will be priced as the sum of the individual tracks. Rest assured, your monthly payments will not change and you will still be able to download the same number of tracks available today, if not more, depending upon your current plan.»

I feel offended that you consider me so stupid I can’t make a simple division. My subscription is 16.99€ for 65 download credits making each track cost about 26¢.

What you are doing is almost doubling the cost, reducing my downloads in half.

Please fix this, or I will cancel my subscription.

Now I wait for their reply.
