Apple Tells .Mac Members That More Benefits Are "Coming Soon"
by , 6:15 PM EDT, August 20th, 2002
Apple has sent out an e-mail to .Mac account holders announcing the membership extension that we covered earlier today. In the e-mail, however, is also a note promising more benefits that will be "coming soon!" The text from the e-mail:
Dear .Mac member,
Since we launched .Mac in July, we've welcomed thousands of new members into the .Mac community, and we can't wait to add more. As an additional thank you to our former iTools members, we are announcing that when they convert to a paid .Mac membership before September 30, 2002, their first year of .Mac membership will automatically be extended to September 30, 2003.
As a full member, you've already qualified. Your membership will now extend to September 30, 2003, well past your original renewal date. And stay tuned for more membership benefits coming soon! Thank you for joining the .Mac community.
There are no further specifics offered in the e-mail. You can find out more information about .Mac at Apple's Web site.
The Mac Observer Spin:
With the controversy in the Mac community about .Mac, it is our opinion that added benefits for members will really help Apple sell the service. It will certainly make those who have already signed up feel that they are getting their money's worth. We look forward to seeing what Apple has in store for us.Warning: include(/usr/local/etc/httpd/sites/macobserver.com/htdocs/forums/extension.inc) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/bbm/macobserver.com/ee2/www/htdocs/comments/comments.php on line 108
