MTekk Weighs on in the HP Enthusiast Decision
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 08:30 PM
"I'm going to take my own swipe at HP here though, for daring to think that they have a right to editorial control over enthusiast sites. I know that it's not compulsory to agree to their terms; after all, they don't exactly NEED enthusiast reviews... it's pretty cheap advertising though, and in many ways much more effective than mainstream media reviews or even traditional advertising. In fact, one could probably argue that Pocket PC and Smartphone would be far less likely to do well without the enthusiast sites.. they'd still sell, just nowhere near as well as when you can go to your favourite site and read about real people like yourself using the product you have in mind."
Matt from MTekk weighs in with his opinion on HP's latest move regarding the enthusiast sites. Nothing terribly new, but it's nice to see another enthusiast site taking a stand on this issue. HP sure isn't making any friends with their new approach. :?
