It's amazing how many people find it difficult to notice the very visible shenanigans in front of them, and CGN's sanitizing of the earlier threads didn't help. I wouldn't say our CDN distributors hold no blame, but I thoroughly suspect M+M is the primary entity here that's causing more of this confusion than anyone else. (false statements, back tracking on pricing from initial FRT submission, fabricating extra costs to justify a price bump – whoops, I mean NR tax)etc.
Totally looking forward for M+M's announcement tomorrow (hopefully) with the new MSRP as it will show their cards and intent from the get go.
