Greg, I "did" have to pay and my request was repeatedly screwed up.
No matter what your opinion is of me or my views this is a fact. Other companies let the customer transfer keys but somehow this wasn't possible for them, instead they put a human being between me and my keys, one who doesn't speak English as his native language and one who has multiple tasks he may be asked to do acting like my request was an imposition on him because he was too busy with the ASB, something I had no intention of every buying so I could care less about that anyway. Clearly they didn't want to do this or they wouldn't charge for it. I don't know how you got yours for free. Perhaps it was the very expensive Xite.
Yea, SonicCore is denying customers support in an effort to convince them to move to Xite, how insightful! And you're absolutely right, customers have the right to insist that S|C hire a native english speaking employee whose sole duty is to attend to the phones and email, since they're so flush with cash.

Braincell someday you gotta tell me where you buy what you're smokin...

...and in a thread about mp3s, braincell manages yet again to turn it around into bitching about Sonic Core. Genius stuff. :roll:

I'm commenting on how bad DRM is in case you didn't notice.

sure, but DRM is not Copy Protection, even if the mechanism may fool you at first sight ;)

There's the Braincell I have grown so fond of over the years.
We always need a voice of opposition even if it is reminiscient of a scornful gay lover...

Your juvenile taunts are indicative of your ignorance. I'm not gay but I stand for the rights of all minorities. What you are doing is like calling someone a nigger and totally not acceptable. In case you haven't noticed, this is 2009 and you are no longer in junior high school. It's similar to your other comment about the size of my sex organ. I know you think you are being funny but you really are not. Not at all. Try to have discourse without seeming like you have a low intelligence.

I'm against all DRM and other forms of copy protection. Wikipedia notes that DRM is a form of copy protection.

See now you are just repeating yourself. You posted this image before and it wasn't funny then, also your photoshop skills are dismal.

Homophobia is not the same as racism, and saying it is shows your ignorance and lack of understanding. People are born with their race, but whether or not someone is born with their sexual tendencies is not proven. You don't wear your sexual preference on your skin. Generalising in this way is politically correct bullshit.

What you are saying is bullshit. Jews often look white and you can't being saying hateful things about them. Check out the hate laws and what they cover. You are wrong.

Yes Braincell I speak from experience.
I have many gay friends as 90% of the dancers I have worked with over the years are gay, and they are quite frustrated during their yearly break ups, it is excellent drama BTW.
If I were you I would be proud and not try to distract from the issue, but rather engage it directly.
I have helped in the reunification of several couples as it was beneficial for the show to maintain it's stability.
So if you want to talk about this sometime, I would be happy to help.
I could also help you with your lack of foreign language skills, or might I suggest Reverso. It's a great app for beginners that were brought up in our public school system.

It doesn't matter who your friends are. It is not acceptable. That is not an excuse for you to be talking that way. It doesn't matter how nice of a person you think you are.
