What really chaps my hide is when these data brokers/credit agencies feel that it is fair to charge you to see what in your own file. Neglecting for the moment how sleazy I think these businesses are and looking at this from a strict business sense; these companies are still in the business of selling a product. You would think that they would want to sell the best quality product they could. Any errors in your credit report have the real potential to harm you AND the business that just rejected your purchase based on their erroneous data. Wouldn't it make sense for them to want to enlist you as a Quality inspector and give you free access to your file? Doesn't it seem that that would have the effect of improving the quality of their product and as well as make average people less hostile toward them? Is it just me that thinks that their business model is all screwed up?

I guess that I will have to re-visit my assumption that profanity is the most popular language used by computer software developers.
As if the content owners won't do the same thing with their 75% ?
