No but having a multi-billion dollar corporation taking advantage of their customers trust, being their guinea pig, and using it to fund their projects isn't any better ... Why not just get consumers do a free vote instead of the crap that Sony is pulling ? |
Probably because voting means nothing when you don't have skin in the game. Its very easy to say 'yeah thats awesome build it', much harder to actually pony up the dollars at the end, putting your money where your mouth is.
And I don't get the bit about trust, again no one is forcing their customers to participate in their crowd sourcing for employee pet projects, they are quite open about what is it, so how is customers trust being taken advantage of?
