    Let’s be honest, 10 bucks ain’t gonna cover the damage to the larger clients. Even moderate sized ones, that’s hundreds of thousands in revenue; with delta probably being out billions.

    So like “here’s a buck, pleas be nice” is just going to make me enjoy being very not-nice

      This wasn’t to clients. This was to partners. Middlemen in the transaction process.

      You can’t buy most software directly from the vendor. You have to buy through a partner. They pass the paperwork and add 10-20%. They do provide some services but their main function is to pass paper.
