Middletown, OH | China Buffet I guess its run like a China Buffet - All You Can Eat ... Unless you eat too much ... then we want you to leave!
Not the way I would run a business.
If you pay the fee ... you get all you want.

| I recall, about 25+ years ago, the HOJO's in Ramsey, NJ, used to have an all-you-could-eat chicken night.
Well, lots of places had all-you-could-eat nights in those days. Of course, as you ate more, you got less of the main food and more of the fillers. Until you got basically fillers. Like fries?
Well, turns out that a bunch high school kids went to HOJO's, and the restaurant called the cops when they were eating too much of all they could eat. It was a near riot.
They had to feed them.
All-you-could-eat stopped shortly after that. And HOJO's was not far behind................ |

Sounds like AAA When I was a kid, my Dad was driving a pretty bad and unreliable car. He thought it would be a good idea to join an automotive service in case he got stranded somewhere. He joined AAA. After calling them three times in two months to jumpstart his dead car, he was dropped for abusing the service. AAA just wants your money, they don't really want to give you any service in return. Sounds like the same deal with this music service. |

Wouldn't a new battery have been cheaper than joining AAA?

But did they bring sleeping bags and bedpans and refuse to
leave after 12 hours?
It's doubtful that the service didn't anticipate "campers"
The business model can succeed without going into the
venture with the intention to defraud 5% of the public.
It's much more likely that the abusers' frame of mind from
the beginning was not in the spirit of things -- 5% of
the general public are idiots if you haven't noticed ... |

Re: Sounds like AAA Unlike EMusic's, basic AAA service IS limited to three uses a year, read your agreement. |
