itunes gift card settlement

[bucket o' butter]

Whether they offer me $3 or $300 I would not take it. This country is so sue-happy it is ridiculous. Seriously people, get a life. It is a free market and Apple has every right to raise the price of their music any time they wish. And please don't give me the "well they should have pulled those gift cards off the shelves" speech. I for one am glad that they did not pull each and every gift card saying "99cents" off the shelves to just throw away in a landfill and be replaced by another piece of plastic, when they were perfectly usable.
I refuse to buy into these silly class action lawsuits. You all do realize that Apple will make back their money from you one way or another don't you? Watch, next month songs will go up in price, or apps, or ipods, whatever, you may get $3.25 back now, but you will pay for it later with interest!

Amen!

It's so easy to register for this and get a few free songs. Whether you sign up or not Apple is going to raise the prices. Its a capitalist society, everyone is out to make money. Grab it while you can as someone else is going to do it if you don't! Google search "Itunes Settlement" to check on whether you are eligible and to fill out the form which takes about 5 minutes.

This is a pet peeve of mine. The McDonald's coffee lawsuit was because the woman had _third degree_ burns on her body. It wasn't "a little too hot", it was dangerously hot and she required skin grafts to heal from it.

There was even more to it than that, though. That wasn't the first lawsuit brought up against a McDonald's for their hot beverages being served above their own guideline temperatures. There were something like a dozen other complaints that preceded it. The huge punitive amount that I would argue was excessive to the recipient (even considering the extent of damage), was more as a punishment to McDonald's for repeatedly ignoring the problem.

I've bought numerous iTunes gift cards but I couldn't tell you whether they said the songs were 99cents of if they were even used to purchase $1.29 songs.

I'm guessing the kids probably qualify but I'm feeling too lazy right now to look into it.
