Microsoft guts Microsoft Rewards points, and its fans are outraged
(www.pcworld.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
You sound like part of the reason they gutted the thing, then.
They're giving out made up points and then letting you trade them for copies of digital files. They're not really losing much.
I stopped doing this a few years ago but the system was flawed from the ground up. The fact that they did nothing to this kind of abuse it mind-boggling. No one actually used this the way it was intended to be used.
