[Free-sklyarov-uk] Collecting names and addresses for direct marketing???

[Simon Wood]

Hi all,

I rang the BMG hotline (0151 225 1159), and they offered me an
uncorrupted replacement CD in exchange for my name and address.

This sort of thing pisses me off.... is there any reason that I should have to provide my name and address in order to purchase a un-corrupt CD?

I shall be phoning saying 'I was thinking of purchasing a copy for my niece', I shall then inform them that since I do not wish my (or even worse her) name and address to a mass-mailing list that I shall not be purchasing the disk via them.

If they get the idea that they can use this as a way of collecting names and addresses (for direct marketing) then I shall be extremely annoyed and disappointed. What will they want to know next... sexual preference?
