I'm also with you on that...

JJ take the check with a small royalty and run...cause the man with the money will own it anyway...
Man can you imagine and maybe Akai will make this place their official forum and treat their customers better.
Boy am I dreaming
"Big"Hey check this out...I borrowed it from somewhere.....

They hate there users! I actually overheard at a very large trade show in Nashville an Akai rep talking to a SR management type from another company say something to the effect of "We made products for dumbass beat maker wannabes." I have also heard them refer to there customer base a "Losers", "Punks", and DJ's as "Dumb"
Almost every interaction I had with them they talked badly about there customers. Making fun of hip-hop and DJ's along the way.
They also admitted several times that they don't pay much attention to the MPC forums. That explains allot about the 5k issues.
Also they treat there resellers like crap. They lie about ETA's to the point of absurdity. The hip-hop community needs to slowly back away, shed a tear to what was once an amazing company and MOVE ON!
Man Akai are we that bad...
