Software Frustrations

Damn, i think that only happens because people don't actually use QuickTime EVER!
I mean, where can you find any other player that you have to pay for to be able to play movies in full screen??

Well, QuickTime has passed Windows Media Player now! I suppose there are some people out there that have used it :)
For whatever reason, I have never been able to get real player to work properly on any system I have ever owned. Maybe it just hates dialup....or maybe it hates me (not as in winME :P)

I've always had more problems with QuickTime than with RealPlayer. But they're tied now!
Ooooh~! It's a hot race for the crappiest media player on Earth~! 8)

It's all very well buying software that's going to be of good use, but what get's me going, no sooner have you purchased it and a new version comes out although you don't have to pay the full price you still have to pay part of it for an upgrade...(Raw Deal)....

Most good software publishers give free upgrades if you purchased in the last so many months. But I know what you mean... It's really annoying.
There's one piece of software that I use that I'll always pay upgrades for because the guy has awesome upgrade policies - free or 20%. I buy his software without even trying it. (I can't mention who here because this is a public forum - prying eyes and all...)
My unofficial upgrade policy is to make it free. However, if I need to cover patent royalties, I can't do that, so I can't have a "free upgrade" policy. Kind of sucks, but that's life.

Hahahaha~! Very much! I can't even run the program on my box here, but it will run in Firefox for some reason. Just wierd.
Also - I've received request for a S***ware Hardware section and a S***ware Web Sites section and they are both up :)
Have at it~!
Peace, Love, and Eternal Ranting,
