Should Consumers Have the Option to Tip Creatives?
Recently, a former executive of Blizzard Entertainment suggested that gamers should have the ability to tip developers if a game leaves them with a truly special experience.

39% Absolutely! I think some products are truly special and I would want to continue supporting it any way I can.
39% I like the idea of having that option, but that does not mean I'll want to use it regularly or all the time
