i vote with my wallet all the time. i dont like the way the gaming industry is headed so i abandoned the hobby. i dont go to the movies. if push came to shove i can live without cable. i only buy 1 or 2 cds a year. a book costs too much? i buy it used. i only get the cellphones that end up being free with promotions when my plan is up. we buy store brand food.
unfortunately too many people these days have forgotten the concept of delayed gratification. theyll grumble grumble grumble but open their wallet the day something comes out.
