Re: Consumer Reports Begging For Donations
One other odd consideration about CR is when they give an item a high rating and then provide individual reviews which often completely conflict with the rating.
Given this lack of rating reconciliation between CR's and the individual reviews in addition to being begged for donations (I don't recall this ever being done before, at least to me...) I'm letting my subscription expire.
I detest being begged.
And, the fact that reviews on products and services are to be found everywhere that are probably better (yes, I'm sure some are questionable) than CR means CR is no longer needed.
I have bought a couple of items based on their reviews that were stinkers too...

Consumer Reports Begging For Donations
I just received an email from Consumer Reports complaining that subscription money isn't enough to do all they want in the way of testing various products and are now begging for monetary donations.
I've had a magazine subscription with them before the internet and now an internet subscription and so they asked if I would continue to support them with a donation.
My gut reaction: NO!
Perhaps, I'm being to harsh, but ...
What say you?
