This is the first time I've seen this kind of ad. It makes me think 
about a story I heard (though I'm not 100% sure it was true) a while ago,
of someone getting punished by the 'Net-community for sending inappropriate
ads to news-groups.

I'm using modem with a dial-up connection and pay additional fees to get
access to internet, and as long as my Digest is filled with Kate-related
stuff I don't mind. That includes hearing about other artists like Tori,
Sarah, Happy, etc. 

But this ad makes me wonder... Shouldn't we decide about some course of
action (or is it presumed that one does it by oneself)?
Or if this posting is concidered valid: could someone E-mail my and explain
why?


KaTe realated:

Since I only have the original 7 albums, and no singles, could someone tell
me when "December will be Magic Again" was released? It appears frequently
in Love-Hounds-Collection, and is wonderful...
