Good choices. I'm still glad I have a lifetime membership and I think that is still a good value because i will use your services for years and years to come and I don't have to pay for it because years ago I got the $100 lifetime. As long as that stays with all the real freedom it gets now I'm in support of helping the lower subs to have a better experience.
Yes, we never plan to take away the ability to download any trainer with our Lifetime subscription, but just like with Aurora Offline Keys being Lifetime PLUS only, there may be some "convenience" options added to the site down the road that might be PLUS only as we have to keep revenue coming in despite offering the one time Lifetime offer. TBH, the site likely wouldn't survive, or at least not be able to continue to offer Lifetime memberships if it weren't for our Lifetime PLUS subscribers. They make up about 1/4 of our revenue here. That is why we are so thankful for those that can spare $4.95/month to support us beyond Lifetime for a slew of additional benefits on the site.
I would gladly give more than $4.95 if there was an option to do so.
I think this is very kind and generous good changes but hopefully not permanent though as the added benefits of the lifetime membership did sway me towards it.
There is only a single thing that Lifetime users received that is no longer required is the +20 updates. This is by far the #1 reason why monthly and yearly users cancel their membership. So, we plan to keep these changes permanent.
