You'd think they'd be equipped to handle a certain amount of traffic based on the amount of members they have. Very frustrating...

The alleged "leaks" of upcoming VMP releases - true or not - came from an ex-employee who claims that he left the company because he was dissatisfied by the poor managaement of the people running VMP.  He went on to say that they're passionate about getting exclusives and making them happen, and ensuring they sound great... but apparently they have zero interest in the "boring" work to broaden their platform.  Site management, hosts, etc.  Not sure if any of that is true but it sure feels applicable.

I don't believe it's their members that are crashing it. Due to the late announcement of the FF exclusive, I bet there were a ton of people who AREN'T member trying to buy copies. As someone else mentioned, they didn't even see this type of traffic spike with DD and Fiona.

Members are probably usually on board just for the monthly releases.  I can't imagine they are usually slammed with traffic at the storefront.
