This is old news. They've been going from out of business sale since 3 months ago. It's pretty sad, 30,000 people is a lot, but they had it coming thanks to Best Buy and the economy. Luckily some of the people will be getting jobs back, if other states like New York is going to hire people for infrastructure.

If the prices drop more than 10%, as I found out, I will go back before March 31st.

I went there tonight and bought D-Sides by the Gorillaz for 17USD with tax as compared to the regular price of 19.99USD plus tax.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.

Yeah, I've noticed it, but it raised a couple of relevant questions and kept the ad to the signature so if someone were to engage with the topic it could be a net positive which is why I kept it. We're not necessarily anti-bot, just anti-spam. Thanks to Symmetry who realized my hope. :)
