I wouldn't say it would lose everything, look at how many free music downloading programs their are, yet iTunes and napster and how many other pay programs still thrive.

I'm with DeepRoots and Ayen 100%.
More then happy to have a discussion on copyrite, 'free' download and so on (AND I'm a big supporter of freeware, open source and copyleft here) elsewhere but Kris has a right both to make his living and to protect his and the instructors' IPR. Cheers, Tony EDIT - spelling: duh what's a 'dowload' when it's at home? I really must buy a dictionary.

Hello Mitch_04, he did it)First: you have a very good point - it would be very handy for members to quickly be able to download a lesson to practice it elsewhere. Also members with slower internet connections sometimes have to wait quite a while for longer lessons to load - which isn't good at all. Until recently my intention has been to offer downloads. However with recent happenings - I have been forced to reconsider. There is no doubt that 99,9% of our users are completley loyal to the site and understand what could happen if portions of gmc member content was made available for free. However I think a little further clarification would be good: it is enough if one single user decides to start spreading gmc for free, for it to be available to the whole world. We are a very small company investing all the bucs we have got into site feature improvements and expansion of our instructor staff. The subscription model is what enables this - we can charge 10 bucs/month because we are only offering access to our lesson library for a limited time. If we were to sell the whole archive for download we would have to charge a whole different price in order for the business to work. Please note that we have added complexe technical solutions to the site and have many more to come (this week we have finished the planning of video lessons 2.0, with which will give our video lessons a completely new look and functionality). Also - we have have increased our gmc staff from 1 person to 25, taken instructors, admins and developers into consideration. In spite of this, as well as the increase of quanitity & quality, we have always charged the same fee and have no plans of raising it. If we want to enable further expansion of the site (and believe me we want that - you wouldn't believe all the cool things the team has got planned for you! ) - then let's all cross our fingers and hope that gmc material stays on gmc servers only... Kris If you let us download vids, you can also add passwords on the video (when you view it). THis could be your GMC id. My friend has passworded all the vids he secretly recorded of people in class (ill ask him how he did it). Good job keeping piracy out till date. -------------------- _____________________________________________________

My friend has passworded all the vids he secretly recorded of people in class (ill ask him how he did it). Good job keeping piracy out till date. This might be good idea. Each member has his own password for download,but when he downloads video his user name and/or password gets "rendered" with video (Kris,like you used to put GMC sticker on videos before). And IF some members shares it on net,you instantly see who is he cause he cannot erase his ID it from the video. Just a thought. -------------------- Youtube
