Obviously i was... but why it's not intelligent ? If you figure out what it says, it's pretty fucking good post. Straight to the point. And tells the facts as they are.

Only the typing seemed to suck, the mind was still clear as ever. Always loving her. Always thinking of her best.

I don't think so, otherwise I wouldn't do it. I'm sure Fnac has to pay for every one of those downloads which will get counted. Fnac will be the ones to loose money on this. As I said before, it's their own fault, but that doesn't make me feel any better.

Fnac is assuming that if they give you one free download, you will buy more from them in the future. Of course we can't because they won't accept our credit cards. We are taking advantage of them knowing we will probably never buy from them in the future. If they would accept my credit card I'd buy something to make it up to them.

I hope this situation gets remedied and we are given more honorable alternatives for purchasing Alizée's music. It's left a bad taste in my mouth. Maybe it's weird for me to care about Fnac, but I just don't like doing business this way.

And thanks for the offer, Snatcher. But the record companies should not be putting us in this position.

He said "intelligible"="able to be understood", not "intelligent". The dictionary says
1 intelligible käsitettävä
2 intelligible ymmärrettävä

but I don't know which is the right one.

I feel the same was as lefty, but this wont hurt her sales. It's only a few downloads and it's not like we're going to be satisfied with it. We'll be buying songs and albums as soon as we can.

Re: fnac, as far as I'm concerned, it's gotta be a teensy weensy drop in their bucket to give out one free download per account.

I hope you're right. But if this is common knowledge among international fans, there could be thousands of free downloads today from thousands of new accounts that will never buy anything from them. I don't know how big Fnac is, but maybe it's still just a drop in the bucket to them.

If nothing else, it still makes them look foolish.

If anyone is like me (and I am a stingy penny-pincher), they'll spend money on the single as soon as its possible. Right now, this is our only opportunity to buy it.

And I'm sure there are French people not doing whatever it takes to get 1 song that are just signing up for the free song. Fnac knows what they're doing, I'm sure.
