No wai! That would be too much like those French sissies, and *nobody*

The real problem is that nobody wants to trust something that you get

paying for something rather than downloading it from the internet.
People will always trust their instincts, no matter how arbitrary they
may be, before an actual, educated opinion. Go figure.
