tubularapp.com — Remember many months ago Phil Ryu was promoting Tubular (Then Inner Tube) on his blog and they were selling preorders to it?Well the thing isn't even out yet, all that people who spent money on the preorder have got is a barely functional beta, the thing is months away and he's still selling it!

And all those times Digg promoted Phil and his spamming the digg system to make a s**tload of money. I'm glad the stupid ppl paid for craptacular vaporware. And I'm glad to see a "good name" dragged through digg.

Yes, definitely bad business. Seems like that's a lesson that needs to be learned by the people selling this app. But there's a lesson for consumers to learn too ... Never pay for software that doesn't exist yet.

I think the best part of this is how genuinely pissed off people are in the comments of the blog. Not a single happy customer until half way down the page.
