So yesterday's Metro carried this advert for 'social music store' mflow. Have a look at the terms and conditions (and click on the image if you want to see a larger version):
Whoops! Terms and conditions are usually there because they have to be, so missing them off is worse than you might think.

I thought terms and conditions were only there to protect the vendor.
Yes, I didn't really make myself clear on that one!
When I said terms and conditions "are usually there because they have to be", I meant that some adverts would be misleading without them, and so omitting the terms and conditions could lead to the advertiser being fined.
I didn't mean there was a legal obligation to include terms and conditions for the sake of it. But then, this isn't my field of expertise, so I might well be wrong.
