There is nothing to be concerned about any bias because a) I am
recommending a free service that anybody can try and evaluate and post
an opinion, b) I said I tried it, it does what the original poster asked
and nobody has demonstrated otherwise, c) the link is in plain text so
that everybody can see the referral id, so I am not hiding anything, if
I had I would not be here clarifying the facts.
