You basically said my "cab" is a thoughtless design
Now I
KNOW you really aren't getting it. His EXACT words are "That touch-and-go looks nice, but I kind of want something a little flashier. That program prides itself on being simple..." THAT is NOT "basically saying you have a thoughtless design", it's stating some merits of your program, and then stating something he is looking for. Not a SINGLE person here would think that "your cab", which is ACTUALLY commercial software you sell
AS A BUSINESS VENTURE relates. Somehow in your mind, you think that your business venture is the same as someone home-building their cab. No one here does it in the fashion you do, as a commercially viable business venture, and is as sensitive about it as you.
What's even more surprising about your product and your attitude is this: You claim you used to do this for commercial businesses such as bars and clubs. What did you do when you tried to sell them on "your cab" and they told you it wasn't for them? Did you tell them "Your mom is fat and hairy"? Because that's the same attitude that comes out in your replies.
and thought your motive was to stomp on Touch-N-Go to protect software that you promote.
Again, now I
KNOW you really don't get it. You obviously haven't taken the time out of your "busy non-stop sales schedule" to
read the ENTIRE post, because if you had, it would have been more than clear and obvious to anyone with half a brain that he is looking to USE software for a project he is trying to do, and DOES NOT "protect software that he promotes". Chris
GIVES his software away for
FREE and was more willing (read: less petty) to help out to work his software to the customer's needs than you.
Now, with that being said,
YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE! In this thread, someone recommends software for someone to try. In your attempt to gain a sale, your actions are clearly to tell how their software isn't commercial grade (does the phrase "you're ripping the quality of his "cab" come to mind? It CERTAINLY does to me!)You have been a member here for less than a month, and in all that time, you have 13 posts, 12 of which do nothing but to shamelessly self-promote your software, and the other one that doesn't
STILL INCLUDES YOUR MENTION OF "TRY MY SOFTWARE, IT'S THE BEST!.
You even go so far as to post this to Chris, and you don't even realize HE HAS HIS OWN JUKEBOX SOFTWARE! YOU WERE TALKING TO THE WRONG GUY! You clearly don't read 99% of the threads you post to, your only effort in posting on this board is to get your software out there in an effort to make a sale. That's known as spamming. So far, you've only made ONE post that doesn't border on spam. It ALSO doesn't help discount the notion that you're spamming us when you have 3-5 posts in a row doing nothing but touting the software you sell.
I misunderstood your intentions.
You never cared about his intentions, otherwise
YOU WOULD HAVE READ THE THREAD BEFORE ACCUSING HIM OF PROTECTING SOFTWARE HE NEVER DESIGNED OR SOLD! Don't crap in my oatmeal and tell me they're raisins! In order to find out someone's intentions, you ask them, and you don't accuse them of trying to "protect his software" from you! And if you consider what he said to be "STOMPING" on your software, you're more thin-skinned than anyone else I've ever met in this world.
What is the lacking thoughtful design?
What possible reason would anyone ever have anymore to tell you, since you are driven by sales and the threat to your market share? There are members of this board who design jukebox software that have a FAR better attitude to some slight criticism of their product that can offer the same thing you do. I for one will always send my business their way.
I've read his posts several times, (try it sometime, you'll find it helpful) and I'm betting his "thoughtful design" means this: Your software is meant to be simple to use. What he didn't find simple is: he wants something that shows album covers, is oriented towards singles, has good support if he needs it, and is a touch flashier than yours (I would read that to mean "Make it skinnable") See what you can get out of READING actual words, rather than "reading into somone's intentions"? The only inference I made is the "make it skinnable" part, and I didn't have to resort to sarcasm and accusations in order to come to that conclusion!
And for the record, Alan DOES state that your product looks nice. THAT'S why you should have saved your sensitivity, sarcasm, and sales pitch. Your actions have born out your support for your product, which was one of his needs.
That's my $1.02, which is more than you'll get from me in your attempt to sell me your software.
Good day sir.
