CobWEBs Daily Edition: There is no salvation that you can subscribe to

Written by Sean P Aune  |  under Podcasting

Welcome to another week of the daily edition of CobWEBs, the flagship podcast of The Cynical Bastards!

For those who don’t remember from the other episodes, this is a new format for the show as we are going to try giving you daily bite sized chunks of our patented brand of cynicism over everything in the tech universe. The show will have a rotating host schedule between Steven Hodson, Mark ‘Rizzn’ Hopkins and myself. You’ll always get two of us, you just never know which two!

In this episode, Steven and I discuss that we are made of money.  Well, that seems to be the attitude of companies everywhere as they try to set up subscription service after subscription service to nickel and dime us all to death.  Somehow old media is getting the business on the Internet all wrong, and are floundering around for a solution which in the mean time is annoying your average user.
