It depends how you expect people to reach the page. If you expect people

to just type the listing in from an advert, say, the former is easier to

remember. If it's just going to be linked from elsewhere, the latter is

better, as it's free.

But we can't clean up spam. And a lot of people want 'most of this

stuff'. It's what the internet was built on - porn, and pirated

software. Take those away, and the internet is just a way to download

patches for computer games and play Team Fortress (but only if you have

unmetered access). Anything else is an interloper.


>>>>How many times has anyone on this list received an unsolicited email

and actually responded to it i.e.bought something/visited a web site and

clicked on a banner?<<<<


In my case, precisely never. Not even in 1995 - I am more or less the same

person I was then. It actually annoys me, and I filter most of it

nowadays.
