Gee, another new version and just another $79.00 to upgrade? And they send
the email saying you can try the 15-day trial but only give you four days to
buy before the deadline. I know a lot of people are quite please but the
constant emails and the lame wording in their emails sounds so desperate
it's a real turnoff.

Whatever you think about all of their methods, please check the meaning of
the word spam before you rush into print.
If you have received emails from them it's because they have your email
address and that's because you gave it to them.
Therefo not spam. You opted in.

When you registered the free version of RSE you agreed to these emails,
which means it isn't spam. I'm pretty sure there's an opt-out link in
the email somewhere if you no longer wish to receive them.

I thought that was the upgrade price from the freebie RSE? This has
been $49 back in October, $99 afterwards, and now $79 as they attempt
to wean people off the freebie, I think.

the constant emails and the lame wording in their emails
sounds so desperate it's a real turnoff.


So opt out and be done with them, or block their incoming emails ...
simple enough.

Bill (got the RSE freebie, didn't feel it was worthwhile to upgrade,
and hits the 'delete' key after reading the monthy enticements
