They're probably the most well known stock photography company out there, I don't think they'll miss your business if you hadn't even heard of them.

And they apparently own iStockPhoto and they are themselves under ownership of a large group.

Voting with one's feet works against local grocery shops, not global corporations.

You can add my business to GP's.

I'm currently in the market for stock photos. The allotted budget isn't one those folk would miss, but it's more than enough to commission our own.

As a direct response to getty's behavior, I'll be commissioning the photos and making them available under a free license after around a year of use. It's also very unlikely that I'll be doing business with them in the future.

It isn't as much of vote with my feet as it is adhering to one's own principles.

Also, thank you for mentioning istockphoto relationship with getty. I'll avoid them in the future as well.
