Pretty much a repeat of the sponsored ripping software debacle from a year or two ago...

Re: disgusting spam

Considering I get about twenty phone calls a day from "Thank you for choosing Visa/Mastercard," "Rachel from cardholder services," "Microsoft technical support," "This is your final notice," "The warranty on your car is about to expire," "Suspicious activity on your iTunes account," and their friends, I'm starting to miss good old fashioned e-mail spam for cheap V1agr@.

Re: disgusting spam

I have already informed our sales team that the email was unappreciated. I'm going to ask if they can maybe reach out to Shout Factory or Film Movement or something for at least a more relevant message

Throw in Chinese scam phone calls and your social security number is going to be suspended and we are on the same page. I just scroll through my spam to make sure legit emails are not in there and send the rest to the netherworld.
