I guess I had better order the second copies of seasons 11, 12 and 13 I was contemplating for a second place I work out. Seems it would be good for both them and me.

If I ever retire, I would do the same and know I have that one year. I have purchased duplicates of most of their DVDs. I will probably get 12 and 13 as duplicates this year to do my part to support them.

I"m sorry to hear their business has been so negatively impacted by COVID, as I think there is significant value in the method.

If they could use a cash infusion, how about a promotion for slight discount on a 12 month subscription, since they'd get the cash on the front end? I see you are going to ask about a 12 month subscription, Jackie. If it helps them keep their business running so they can continue to keep us from becoming a bunch of stiff old geezers, I could certainly budget for a subscription .

I don't know how much technology would be required for them to sell downloads, but just from the comments here, I think they'd have a ready market for those, as well.

Please keep us posted, Jackie.

Yeah I don't really know the reasoning behind their decision making....nor do I agree with it. I will ask on Monday about the year long discount.

I also really would like to see them sell downloads. Honestly, I totally "get" where you are all coming from.

I guess now is a good time as any to gift myself a subscription for 3 months. Helps them and it helps me.

I asked them about selling downloads and they said the couldn't because of copyrights law or something like that (I lost their email so I'm not sure!).
I wonder if it's the real reason.
Even instructors who started selling subscriptions to their Live workouts (like Cathe) ended up selling them as downloads. I probably spent more on her download than an annual subscription to her streaming service! But, I love to own the workouts and I don't have to worry about the quality of my connection.
I agree that if they decided to sell downloads, they would have a ready market!
