We had an email on 14th telling us that was ending and an affiliate program was starting.

Which may or may not be related to us now having a Membership ID on our home page (only visible to us, i.e. we can't see anyone else's).

i think this signals that something big is going on behind the curtains.

i see only one possible outcome : IS being merged into a cheap getty collection, a small change in pricing, and some cosmetic fixes.

That is our referral program! We are being phased into a getty lite collection  :-[

Yes. This make sense.   Always seemed dumb to not have non-exclusive images on Getty.  They lose a lot of money that way.  I sell okay in getty 360 so there is a market for it.

Autumn is coming. time for stock agencies to try "new things" and to break down and become unusable in the most important buying season.....

I think that's just iStock.

Are you saying there will be no more istock.com, everyone will be sent to getty?
