One concession to make to you CHMOD:
You're right, my last few posts have been out of character and not as "useful" as many I've made in the past. I apologize for that. It's just that I get really annoyed by all the CCBill bashing going on lately. That's not an excuse, but it is the reason. I get annoyed when people don't seem to "get it". The answers are so obvious.
We all get frustrated when sales dip. And it's human nature to want to find someone to blame. But those that have been trying to pin their sales dips on CCBill are missing the boat. The answers lie elsewhere.
I don't have time to go into my strong opinions on what is causing these trends. Time of year, sophistication of surfers, and a few other things I'd rather keep to myself, are just a few.
But I have to also tell you that overall this year has been better for me than any other. When frustrating days come along all I have to do to cheer myself up is to simply have a look at the numbers for all of 2004 and compare those numbers to this time 1, 2, 3, or more years ago. They're MUCH better.
