While I sympathize with your unease concerning the volume of messages on
this topic, I would hate to see this type of discussion curtailed in the
future. What is going on in this thread - even if you aren't interested - is
a *truly marvelous* thing! Users are talking, debating, arguing, and
communicating directly with a vendor to help determine a product feature set
that will work best for everyone.
This is a tremendous gift, both as a user and as a vendor! I'm not familiar
with another forum that provides this level of interaction between customers
and vendors (or vendors and vendors, or customers and customers for that
matter).
When I'm not interested in a particular thread, I try to think of the emails
simply as unwanted gifts. I may not appreciate them, but I do appreciate the
spirit in which they are given.
