Amazon.com...
Feb. 1st, 2005 01:16 pmI'm now having doubts about Amazon.com.
Origionally, Amazon has spammed me w/o notice -- for their music store, about six or seven years ago when they started up and Sanford Wallace was the King of Spam. I vowed never to buy stuff there ever.
Now, I feel the pressure to rethink my stance, with the Amazon wishlists and whatnot. It's something I don't want to take lightly, but I see no benifit in not taking another look.
Amazon's cleaned up their act. I look onto NANAS and see not a direct spam from Amazon, nor any links to Amazon's website. No spam from them, no direct spamvertizement of the URL. Nothing. All the spam that even refers to Amazon is ether "Woops, hit This is Spam but it isn't," junk from other sites that uses Amazon's bandwidth for images, or e-postcards which you know are crap to begin with. Aparently, Spamhaus agrees with me, and there's no block on their IP space.
I'm going to put up a wishlist. Somethings simple.
