It's more like your toaster saying "we have another model that provides xyz features you may or may not want"

- tomc1985 7y agoWhy is that even remotely OK?
- Infinitesimus 7y agoIf done well, it could just be a way to inform customers of an improved product. Lets say Apple launched iTunes2 as a separate product and one day you opened iTunes and saw the banner "Try iTunes2!" would that be equally upsetting? Or you go to gmail.com and see a banner for "Try Inbox!" etc. This isn't candy crush in WordPad, it's an ad for an enhanced text editor
- JohnFen 7y agoI honestly can't imaging who this could be "done well". > Lets say Apple launched iTunes2 as a separate product and one day you opened iTunes and saw the banner "Try iTunes2!" would that be equally upsetting? Yes.

- jandrese 7y agoMaybe more like you rent an apartment that comes with a basic toaster, and has a sticker on the said that says "full feature toaster available, inquire with the landlord if you are interested". Mildly annoying and silly, but maybe some people wouldn't even consider the possibility if you didn't tell them about it.
