Graphicstock! WARNING!!!!!

Seems DP are now partnering with Graphicstock!
May as well just give everything for free! Please tell people in the Partner scheme that they are doing this. I think I only know this because I am opted out (and left just a few images there to keep the option for the future open), and they wrote asking permission to include me.
Graphicstock, for those who don't know, is where people pay a fee (theory 100$, but often on offer) to download as much content as they want FOR A YEAR FOR NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. I have no idea what DP intends to pass on to photogs. But it can't be much more than giving away you whole stock library for nothing. Especially if you are on other sites.
Obviously, I am NOT joining.
PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG but I don't think I am.

I am opted out as well but didnīt receive the email. Can you post it here, please?

increasingdifficulty:
The way they work is that they buy the rights for a one-time fee to sell on the subscription part of the site.

Then there's the marketplace, which has higher prices and you get all the royalties.

Hard to say how the DP deal will work, but most likely they will put those images in the marketplace.

By the way, I can't find where you opt in or out for things like this, where is that?
