Sorry, that you looked at our posts and viewed them as heartless, Captain. That was not my intention. It is not my place to say so, but I have been privvy to a bit of information regarding the Styx situation (of which it is certainly not my place to air in a public forum) that I've been unhappy about hearing. This, I admit, has colored my view of the situation a bit, but what is truly important to me is the music, first and foremost. Please remember that there are always three sides to every story: the right side, the left side, and the truth.

No matter what my "personal" feelings are, I will never spend money on mediocre works. I have wasted far too many US dollars on things in the past that turned out to be a big waste. There are several people in this world that have been billed as idiots, rude, unappreciative, etc., by others, yet I can still enjoy their works -- I don't have to hang out with the person. However, it is when I find that they are *not only* talented, but also very sweet, kind, humble, etc., that I will go the extra mile to promote them. However, this does not mean that I will belittle anyone for enjoying something that a person creates just because I may personally dislike the artist who has created it.
