| Worse, the M04 convention of changing the mouse cursor to an arrow with the MSN butterfly when you are hovering over a link that's web content not local was utterly abandoned with M05. Apparently we weren't generating enough hits when we knew where the difference was between Money the personal finance management app and MSN Money the advertising deliver engine.

| Advertisements and marketing links ("Get a great Home Equity Loan", "Great Car Loan Rates") are splattered all over all editions of M05, even with the "Settings" for ads turned off. Worse, many of the pages ("Tax Center", etc) are nothing more or less than MSN Money in disguise, complete with more ads/marketing links.

| Are the advertisements only in the Basic version? I am using the 90 day demo of Deluxe and plan on buying Deluxe. But I refuse to pay $40 for a product with ads.

| I am a long time user of money who has opted out of the M05 upgrade, I agree with virtually all of Dick Watson's complaints about the forced connectivity, advertising, etc. What other options do we have? By all accounts quicken is not much better. There is MoneyDance, which I have not tried or heard much about. Will Microsoft take notice and reverse the current trend of Money? |
