We all know how it can be slow, quiet, or even boring at times during the holidays. You have a few days off and a few hours to yourself. During these times I usually spent some time at a very nice music site called Imeem. This place had just about every song you could possibly think of that was ever recorded. It was a place where I research the songs I put up for different ladies birthdays and to have fun with other subjects using recordings from the 30's to the 70's. I pay a membership fee so I could have more storage space and get rid of the pop ups that advertised on the site. It's not a lot of money and well worth it so my time at Imeem goes smoothly. But not anymore........
Without advertising or warning the members, Imeem was aquired by MySpace. Nothing about it on my dashboard while I was in Imeem, or email about the coming buyout, or a courtesy call telling me I am about to be fucked. No, after a three week absence I tried to log into Imeem and found myself looking at the Communist Manifesto of what now limited things I could do since MySpace took over. I can join for free but not one fucking thing that I use to do can be done now. It's all been wiped away so we can offer you the MySpace experience with a couple of current music videos thrown in.
Big whoop.
Now at the bottom of this document is a small sentence telling you where you can go to see about a refund or partial refund if you were a paying member. Except it doesn't link you to the customer support site. So you enter the address manually into the search engine. Whoever came up with what comes next was very good. You push the search button and it takes you into a Mobius Trap which eventually dumps you out at the beginning of your quest with a pop up neatly appearing to see if you give up and all they need is a little information to help you join. Before you ask.....No, the little place at the bottom of each page has mysteriously lost that little "Contact Us" button.
So it looks like I have been forced out of another oasis where you could actually enjoy yourself at your own pace so mostly zit popping teenagers can have more space to put up a few more pictures of themselves to be enjoyed by pervs and pyscho stalkers, who can now more easily track your every movement. For free. Isn't that nice.
So in ending this small tirade just let me say that Imeem was the top of the line when it came to listening to music. There were no delays or skips like sometimes happens to YouTube. Just pure clean streaming music that you could enjoy. So if anyone associated with or perhaps even a major shareholder or officer of MySpace just happens to be a member of the TMF and reads this and takes offense at my thoughts here today, I want to give you my very heartfelt "FUCK YOU!". Or I'll tell you what.....ask me to apologize at some gathering or munch. I almost feel like daring you too. If you hand me my money I just might. If not, I'm gonna get my money's worth in other ways.
Have a nice day.
