I have two thoughts wrt subscription models like that. First, it's too much money: I think something like $12.00 a year or less is more like it. For crying out loud, how much money do you need? Based on their Netcraft, Alexa and Google ratings, I'm quite sure they could easily get 100,000 subscribers - do they really need six million dollars a year to support the place?

Secondly, without a recommendation from someone I trust (as you have done here), I doubt that I would take a chance.

At the end though, it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Quite a few places use this "delayed content" idea, but I just don't like it, and remain grumpily opposed.

It does look like an excellent site, though..

Ya. I don't know if I like it so much either.

But I decided to give a try and see how much I use it. I figured I paid more for magazine subscriptions in the past, so if I go their all the time and get good information then that may be worth it. But otherwise I'll let my subscription die.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
