To be quite honest I could care less who manages the addons...whether it be curse, WM, or WI. I just can't stand the holier then though art bullcrap thats spewing about. Again one place was doing it for free...people that wanted to make some money didnt like it...so this whole situation came about. Instead of just coming out and saying that...people have to beat around the bush and make it sound like something else entirely. Neither WM or Curse are as bad as either make each out to be.

If WM was doing it free, so are WoWI and Curse, all of the above provide addons for free, all of the above provide updaters... free, all of the above are ad-based in their revenue streams.
The difference is WoWI and Curse both provide author tools, both require that the author submit their addons for distribution, rather than leeching from other sites or stealing them outright.
