THIS is the real problem most people have with tubes.

They're not fucking up "the market", they're fucking up your personal business.

But why should they care? Why would the owner of a business give a flying fuck how his business negatively affects his competition?

You can say "oh well they'd make 10 times as much if they didn't give thus and so away", but that's not true.
They wouldn't have the amount of traffic they do, not even 1/10th of the traffic they do, if they had just started another TGP or MGP.

So they came in with a new business model, stole a shit pot full of your traffic and sales, and now you're all boo hooing and trying to play the morality card or some shit....instead of admitting that you just got lazy, set in your ways, and got beat.

Now you can get with the times and survive, or you can keep crying about how great things used to be before the big bad tubes moved your cheese, and starve.

It's your dime.
