You know the obsession reference was a joke. Didn't I place enough <g>'s ?

As to your question, I think it's an easy call. They obviously feel that they have enough of what people want in their sites, to make it unavailable to those who won't turn the cookies on. They count on what I mentioned in the last post, namely, that just not enough of us are demanding something different. This is the essence of a free market, capitalism, etc. As long as goals are met, profits continue, etc, there isn't an incentive for site owners to change their ways.

Of course, if enough people would 'just say no' as it were, there would be a change. Everything in commerce is numbers, and numbers are king. If they were hurt in the pocket, they would come around to our way. Unfortunately, OUR way is still only a FEW (relatively speaking) of OUR ways.
