I was wondering why GMC is always advertised as "free guitar video lessons".
It's not free isn't it?  Also the mainpage says that. Very dubious in my view.

Well whichever way you look at at, GMC offers huge amounts of quality content for a tiny tiny fee !! If only all websites did the same

Heeeeeeeeeeeeey. Wait a second. You got me wrong.
I didn't meant it should be free, but it's a curious kind of advertising saying it's for free but in fact it isn't. -------------------- You can't take the effect and make it the cause

There is actually a lot of free stuff on the main page. All of the video lessons have free sections (in green). That's how I got hooked on this site, I think it was an "In the Style of" lesson. It even had the tab below the video, though you can't open the GP tab. It gives people a great feeling for what a value is in store for them if they join.

Well main videos are FREE , also every lesson has one or more FREE segments.Forum is free for users to read , Lick of the day lessons are completely FREE..So its fair advertising campaign..If you like all of that and want more you pay a very small fee..

I become insane. You're like politicians
If I read free lessons, than I expect free lessons and not just videos from guitarists playing. You get that also on youtube. I DO NOT WANT TO decry GMC. I wouldn't be here, if I didn't like it. It's just curious to me This post has been edited by Constie: Jan 1 2008, 04:47 PM -------------------- You can't take the effect and make it the cause

Actually I wanted to talk if this is a good promotion or if it's deterring for people that come here and think it's free. When they see it's not they'll probably leave the page. -------------------- You can't take the effect and make it the cause
