Big business looking after its own interests again:

Not that there is anything wrong with that. I just think the public should know what industry is doing.

Preservation of Status Quo?
But they have a new album out soon, surely they don't need preserving just yet. The rolling Stones on the other hand... well... formaldahide? _____________________

I think Anshe has more to gain from P2P teleporting than she has to lose with decline of telehubs.

Big business Last time I checked my bank account it looked like average German household. I just think the public should know what industry is doing. This is why I posted on public forum. You are wasting your time with me because you should rather spend it on people who lobby behind closed doors or on the phone. Since about one year I have been taking a lot of heat because I made my business transparent and never tried to hide anything about it. You can read what I do, why I do it, how much I earn and you can even read my "lobbying" on public forums. This is how it should be. Please help the community by focus on the real issues, those that lie deeper, where you need do real research behind the surface. That kind "interest lobbying" you are looking for you don't find on forums and you don't find it with those businesses that already, by their own choice, stand fully exposed to the public. Seek out those who avoid the public and you will find the really interesting things. _____________________

Last time I checked my bank account it looked like average German household. Ah but it is your SL account she is talking about. You are the biggest business in SL, Anshe, and you know it - I don't know why you try to downplay it. This is why I posted on public forum.

You used the forum exactly as it should be used, and expressed your concerns. While I don't agree with the sentiment, Jamie is way off base here. There is nothing to see, move along. _____________________
