Please stop spam marketing

thank you for the response Rob

let me say this:

when the update service first came out and we [who don't like it] grumbled, Kate said emphatically [and more that once] that we did not have to upgrade, if there is nothing for us we could choose to wait - I have done this, choosing to remain on ver 12.6

I do not therefore want to be continually bothered with offers for something I do not want; please facilitate a means for individual users like me to exercise out legal right not to be subjected to spam against our wishes and be able to opt out

I'll pass your comments on, although I'm afraid don't know the legality of the marketing screen when opening Xara but pretty sure it's not affecting any of your consumer rights.

thanks

but you will appreciate I am sure, the sillyness of Kate telling us we should wiat whilst on the other hand magix are shoving it down our throats

I find marketing in pretty much any industry annoying / deceptive / confusing to some degree.

Apart from beer marketing. They can advertise to me as much as they want lol.

ah in that case I shall bore you with how much a pint of bombadier costs in my local: £2.80 - and no that is not a JDW'spoon, just a normal northen coastal locals pub... and it's always spot on... no further marketing required

Yea we don't have anything like that other than in a Wetherspoons but I like the rotation of ales they do. It goes so quickly that barrels don't sit there for long, so rarely have a bad pint.

I know they get a lot of flak but heck you just can't beat those sort of ale prices (£2.50).

p.s. try the Shipyard American pale ale, it's pretty damn good.
