alt epg now taking subscriptions

Don't bring your falling out with Dave onto this forum please.

 

If it worries you, don't donate.

 

I think you may be reading more into it than I do. Looks like the suggestion for recurring donations came from a grateful recipient. The unwillingness to discuss what happens to donations is a little concerning though.

(I'm thinking of asking how much it would take to remove irritating apostrophes from the AltEPG site. Folks, the plural of TiVo is NOT TiVo's! )

 

You could always start a Alt-AltEPG project if you want! I have no problem with them seeking donations as it follows in the footsteps of most Freeware. When I find a really useful application that saves me time and money I am more than happy to click on the 'tip' jar. These guys have shown an entrepreneurial spirit whilst others just sulked or looked for someone to sue, so good on them. And yes, every TiVo owner should donate something if only to buy them a pint In fact shame on you if you don't.

 

I was just waiting for the idiot OP to come up with another dig!

To avoid any confusion , the AltEPG project is not asking for any donations, we have made it an option after multiple request's!

Donations are not linked in any way shape or form to the continued success or failure of the project!

Let's make one thing clear we certainly do not want any donation from you spitfires, IT would defiantly be un-welcome because you've made your feelings quite clear and hence it would be impossible for you to donate anything in the spirit that they are intended!!
(not that for one minute I'd expect you to anyway!).

 

No-one has refused to answer, there you go assuming again and making an arse out of yourself. The simple answer is we don't know yet, which you'd already know if you bothered to read instead of trying to stoke up trouble all the time!!!!

 

I myself don't care where the money goes

Automan.

 

Who cares (apart from yourself, obviously)? As long as the service remains viable and reliable the money can go towards servers, modem's, beer or pizza's. I am sure when you leave a tip you don't ask the waiter what he is going to spend it on! Beside's the tax implications don't bear thinking about.

 

............. to replace the money he has spent on the project so far and will do sustaining it. Seems fair to me.

 

Give the guy a break. There must be immense pressure delivering on an open promise to a lot of people with a very tight deadline so answering trivial pursuit questions here is probably way down on his 'things to do' list, and a distraction. I am sure there will be plenty of time for name calling and recriminations after 1st June when normal service is resumed

 

You should ask yourself that question as the poster of a deliberately misleading thread title with an obvious agenda.

 

Is he then? Doesn't come across to me that way. Whatever he/the Altepg project does with the money is fine by me.
