That's one reason I tend to shop more at Fictionwise than BooksOnBoard (though I do shop at both). I have no problems with BoB's new policy, but I've seen enough "cheap shots" (or enough things that read that way) on their website that it has affected my opinion of the company.
I like their deals - and am perfectly willing to do business with them but I don't get the "warm and fuzzy" feeling I get from dealing with Fictionwise or Baen. That's why when all else is equal it's one of their competitors that gets my money.
Having said that it's definitely long past time they changed the policy on Rewards Dollars. I ended up getting Jim Hines' "Stepsister Scheme" with Rewards Dollars I earned from the Random House free book promotion so the net cost to me was $0.17 or so. It doesn't make economic sense for them to do things like that. Calling anything they advertise "fraudulent" is a bit much, though.
