Then in your opinion, he owes you nothing but me he does if he expects me to spend my money.

He doesn't owe you the time of day.

He could care less about you, hes trying to provide a quality product to the public. He doesn't have time to coddle to the foot stompers. He will sell many copies sight unseen based on passed performance. Others will wait for trusted reviews. In the end it depends on the product. Even you will buy it if its a good product, no matter how put out your feelings are.
