Now why doesn't suprize me?

Companies often do this but M$ is worse than most and there's no excuse as they have the most money, I hope they got the interest added.

I wonder if they'll ever pay Wes Cherry.

He wrote Solitare.  Never saw a dime for it.

If I were working for M$ (a cold day in hell) ... I would sue, just make sure you have a good lawyer.

....and it'd be an even bigger bonus if they worked for you pro bono

Is, but not was.  They were great about 20 years ago.  "Vertigo" and that album it was on was the last nail in the coffin.

A lot of bands tend to deteriorate hideously with time ... another good example is Third Eye Blind, they used to be awesome, but with every new album they get crappier and crappier ... it's kinda sad ... maybe bands should die before getting crappy, that way they will live forever :D (bands like Nirvana, my fav band)
