First they bash Seeing Eye or Sendero:
They are greedy for blind folks' dinero.
And the mod's gentle chiding
Brings too little subsiding,--
Makes me want to destroy my sombrero.

Thinking that an app is too expensive is one thing but calling a company
greedy and accusing them of taking advantage of the blind and stealing
from them is another thing altogether. It's hard to think this isn't
emotional when you start tossing around terms like greed, taking
advantage of and stealing.
If your original post was more like the post below, I doubt this thread
would have been as long as it's been.
I'm curious what you think is a reasonable price. I'm also curious how
much you would pay for such an app and how much it would have to cost
for you to think it's too expensive for yourself but still wouldn't call
the company out for stealing and being greedy.

I own my own business and completely understand that you need to make
money. We all do. I never asked for a free product. All I want is a
reasonable price. It's not emotions, it's my opinion that the price is
excessive. I know about in app purchases, but seeing a registration
screen that wants you to pay so much right away with out even a trial
leaves a bad taste in my mouth. As for writing a review before
purchasing, if the price drives one away from purchasing, I think I have
a right to let the developers know of this so that may be they will
think of a more suitable plan. I have expressed my views on this and
this is the last I will write concerning the subject. I thank the list
mods for allowing me to speak my piece, which is financially motivated,
not emotionally driven. If I am considered a monster for expressing my
opinion, so be it. Remember, the 4th of July is coming up, and I am an
American who is entitled to voice an opinion. Sorry if I am not speaking
in a "politically correct" manner, but that's how it is. Sometimes the
silent majority needs somebody with the guts to speak up and protest.
Happy 4th of July to all! Don't ever be afraid to speak your mind on
issues whether others like what you say or not!

Hello all. Let's remember that being passionate about how we feel VS
being rude are totally different things. The latest discussions
regarding the Seeing Eye app seem to have drawn out the monsters in a
few people. Funny thing, the Seeing App discussion several months ago,
when it was discussed about the upcoming app did the same thing. Then a
couple of years back, the Sendero Lookaround app did the same thing. I'm
not a Sendero Fanboy, but it certainly seems like there are some people
who just have it out for Sendero. Or, maybe they just have it out for
paying for things. I don't know. I don't really care what the reasons
are. All I'm writing about here is to warn you all that if anyone has
written or is about to write rude and inflammatory comments attacking a
person, they will immediately be put on moderation. If you have already
written such emails by the time you read this, too bad. You will be
hearing from me as well. We are adults and we should all know better. My
apologies for saying this to most of the list members for whom this
message doesn't apply to.
Cheers.--
