I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

and they're good about the experience. on two separate occasions, i've had movies streaming through Amazon buffer for about 20 seconds total. and both times they sent me refunds for my rentals without me even contacting them bc it didn't even bother me that much.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Yep, that's the norm.

i'm sure the refunds happen when the buffering is due to their servers and not your ISP, but still, not bad.
