  • Maybe not the same, as its more of a service contract. At work, we have had a site which has been closed for 2 years. for 2 whole years, every week the vending machine company arrive, try to get in, can’t, ring us, and we say “that site is closed”.

    Well we finally after 2 years got them to remove that site from their system?

    Their response? to remove ALL food from ALL vending machines at all our sites, to remove the coffee machines, and to remove the water coolers. The water coolers are especially egregious, as they just sit there doing nothing. they are from tap water, so not even replacing bottles etc.

    Sometimes subscriptions are useful. I wish the BBC TV licence in the UK was a subscription. I cannot justify spending £150 on a licence for an entire year, just to watch a month of shows. but other times it sucks. I just want Microsoft office. I don’t care if it will cost me £200. Right now my favourite game is subscription based, but i don’t think i can justify the £9.99 a month, or £50 for a whole year. £50 for lifetime access? maybe.

    Here is an idea, let me run it on my PC and it won’t use any of your servers
