Returns A customer has one month from the time of purchase to "return an item". Wave pays no royalties to any content provider until at least a month later. Surely, that is enough time to decide if you've been "ripped" off or not. Hell, you can even use the content as many times as you wish before you return it. You think Visa would let you return that shirt you wore three times? In this respect, Wave's model is substantially better for the consumer, no? ---Slate

Mamabear: you're confusing me with another poster, as I never noted that people do business with unknown companies on the 'net all the time (although they do, don't they???). Perhaps you missed my previous statement that, once Wave is widely deployed, it will no longer be an unknown company. In fact, once Wave is widely deployed, you're going to see the phrase "paradigm shift" so often, and in connection to the company, and in so many different news outlets, that it's going to make you as a shorter, Barb, physically ill.

When I put in the Wave disk with the Learning Company logo or the Psygosis or the Sierra label I am not buying an unknown -- and I am using my Visa --- Wave will get rapid credibility through its OEM partners and its content partners. It is first and formost a SERVICE company providing great service. Once you've used the system, bundled with other things you trust and trust is established it's a no-brainer. Try it before you criticize it --- If you ain't tried Hauppauge's wave direct you don't know what you're dealing with. Folks, we are building the easiest to use store chain in America selling -- all things digital. Wave -- the next revolution in content bundling Weby
