If I pay a LOT for something and get poor results, I'll be pretty critical. If something is cheap I don't expect much of it. If something is free, then my instinct is to focus on the cost of my time, which in many cases makes me demanding. A perfect example of this would be Facebook. If it suddenly ate of my photos I would be furious because of all the time I'd spent tagging them. Similarly, I haven't really used Reddit since 2007 due to the fact that it once tricked me into wasting a lot of time writing comments that were invisible to everyone but me. Even thinking about it now I'm angry. Money is money, but time is the stuff my life is made of! http://toshuo.com/2007/reddit-deceived-me/ http://toshuo.com/2007/reddit-deceived-me/ On the other hand, if my $20 Nokia phonosaurus died, I wouldn't exactly be broken up about it.
