NDA's? And the ability to actually advertise the partnership? Much less your own product?

The nightmare begins....

Now when I go to display Ultimate pp's on my iPad, up pops "downloading application" with that circular motion thing that goes on forever. Any iPad users out there....or any tablet users for that matter....able to display Ultimate pp's with comments under the new format?

Why wouldn't the new site allow for automated file downloads? Assuming this wouldn't be for a large number of files over a small time frame.

A friend that uses the Multicaps files said that they were raised from $2 to $5. I thought he was kidding. Seriously.
(I wouldn't pay $2 for them but that's just me.)
Didn't those things used to be like 50 cents before CDI got a hold of them?

the process to find a downloadable file takes longer

other than that it's same old. Only thing that ticked me off was re-entering CC info. I avoid using CC's online. I use those throw-away credit cards or bitcoin online when possible.

Years ago Multicaps was very close to single file format/ Close enough to run it on a program designed for single file format. And yes , the old TSN-something was 50 cents.

I spoke to those guys a few weeks ago. some programs have not been touched since their old developer died. They have no one to fix bugs , no developer support, that's what they told me. The guy who wrote the single flat file format died. I found out because I use Bris custom file generator for debugging and I found 2 bugs, one was mine, one theirs that can never be fixed because the Jockey club won't fix it (or so they told me), They said "oh that programmer died" any ever see single file format, it's a wall of commas...

so people have found serious issues

an old saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it". that was my first thought when I saw the new design.

With today's web programming I would have been terrified to bring that into Production on short notice. Currently I'm doing Kodi developer support for a hobby. There are so many platforms and 3rd party tools out there my head spins.

FYI, if you are downloading the pps and betting on twinspires. You will now be charged if you download them from Brisnet. If you download them from Twinspires, they are still free but the two accounts are no longer linked. They will still be free from twinspires if you wager, but if you download and do not, then the cost is taken from your twinspires account.

At least this is what I was told yesterday when I call the customer service number. Customer Service
