LOVEFiLM Appears to Condone Affiliate Spamming

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

I received an email to one of my hundreds of spam-trap addresses a few days ago, promoting a free trial of the LOVEFiLM service. Ironic, as only a few days ago on this very blog, I was promoting the service myself as I love it so much. “This will be easy”, I thought to myself, [...]
