Evoca: Web 2.0 - und wie man versucht dem User über den Tisch zu ziehen

Da nutze ick seit über zwei Jahren einen Gratis-Service, mit einem zwar zeitlich unlimitierten, aber uploadtechnisch monatlich limitierten Account.

Ick schön meine Musik dort hochgeladen und diese in mein Blog einjebettet.

Und jetze nach über zwei Jahren Treue kommen die Herrschaften nicht nur auf die Idee, sofort Geld haben zu wollen, sondern den zeitlich unlimitierten Account auf ab sofort 30 Tage zu beschränken.
Wenn ick jetzt nicht innerhalb von 30 Tagen auf den Bezahl-Service wechsle, löschen die Saftärsc.. alle meine 29 Songs.

Det ist Abzocke 2.0 und ick werde ab sofort andere Services, wie beispielsweise Odeo nutzen. (Get even more multi-media superpowers by creating an Odeo account. Totally free. Totally painless. Pinky swear.)
Evoca ist ab sofort jestrichen. Und die Songs habe ick notfalls immer noch auf Festplatte. Wer also die Songs noch hören will, muss et mir nur sajen.
Saftsäc.. das!

Hier meine Antwort an die Abzock....:

you have changed the FREE member trial period from an open-ended time period to a maximum of 30 days.

You will close my account and delete my recordings 30 days from today's date.

I will switch to odeo.com (totaly free) (I will not switch to your "pro-account")

I´m a early adapter from evoca (March `06) an I´m very sad about your procedural method.

That´s definitv not web2.0.

In my opinion it´s a kind of "rip-of".

I´m only a little Blogger with less than 400 readers/day.

It will not harm you, that I have to inform my readers, why they can not listen anymore to my recordings.

So, good bye. If you want to listen to my recordings again, go to odeo.com.

Sincerely yours,

Herman Pachulke
