That's all well and good, but as Dr. Phil would say, "How's that workin' out for ye????" Seems to me, they've run everyone off AND the new people aren't sticking around either, because there's nothing here to see, and no substantive help to me had.
It reminds me of the big record companies. By fighting the whole MP3 download thing, they've killed their own golden-egg-laying goose. Instead, they should have realized that by CREATING SAMPLING OF THE PRODUCT, revenues, over time, go UP, not DOWN.
Oh well. Not my problem, I guess.

Oh, I quite agree. I believe they haven't gone about it wisely at all. I was simply trying to explain the reasoning behind it. If you're a business person it makes you shake your head, doesn't it?
It also doesn't quite jive with the altruism that we silly folk think should be buried deep at the core of medicine, or therapy, no matter what the bottom line ... but if it's also bad business, what possible purpose does it serve to anyone?
See, that's what puzzles me. But then I'm easily confused.
