Poisontaster, Thanks for your reply to my post. My experience is still much different than yours. You said you typed in "Touch of Evil" and got a message back that said, "Search Found No Matches". This morning I typed in "Touch of Evil" and hit the green "Go!" button. What I get taken to is a blank page (well, there's a blue border on the left, but there are no words, so effectively it's blank). Because of this, I didn't get a chance to try a "Sounds Like" button. You wrote something very powerful in your reply to me: "My assessment of the risk in TSIG is that as long as TSIG is not a scam, you are looking at a very very explosive stock. Is it a scam? You'll have to decide for yourself." I hear you, but after experiencing PNLK (Pro Net Link) you've got to cut me some slack for being extremely skeptical. So far, TSIG management is striking me as inept! I mean what kind of management would put up a test web site for CDs, and when you type in "Beatles" and hit "Go!" you get a blank page?! How about a page that says, "Site still in beta--please try again on August 1. Thank you for using Compact Connection..." or something like that? I work as a software developer in my day job so I will be the first to tell you how difficult it is to generate a good product on the first or even second shot. But I can also tell you that you do not deliver a product to a customer that does not tell a full story. Why don't they wait until September to go live with the web page since it appears to have search and database problems? How disrespectful is that to say to a customer, "Please use us to buy your CDs, but also please disregard the web page errors and the lack of database hits for certain categories of music." I am willing to forgive TSIG for web page problems because, as I say, I understand the difficulties that can be involved. But the answer IMO should have been to postpone release. To me it is troublesome that TSIG management thought it appropriate to go in front of an audience so ill-prepared. As the saying goes, "You never get a second chance to make a first impression." TSIG management doesn't seem to understand that IMO. My thanks also to Herring and sammaster who responded to my post. Sammaster wrote something interesting: "the price of the stock is just right .33 can't complain too much at that price...". He might have a good point there and perhaps I am being too critical. I don't know--something doesn't sit right with me on this company's management. IMO, you need to have an extraordinary drive for excellence to succeed in this highly competitive web commerce world. So far I'm not seeing that drive for excellence. Chris
