Presumably if you are accepted into their Marketplace then your images aren't given away in the everything-you-want-for-a-year-for $50 range? Or am I wrong?

That is correct, it works like VideoBlocks. My clips are not on the free area, the clips there are purchased for that purpose but as an artist selling there you images have to be bought.

Reading that with my cynical head on it says "We appreciate your patience as we rig the Photo Marketplace in favour of select test groups of contributors prior to launch."  Thinking ahead it kind of paves the way for a premer select site supported by an enterprise team, while everyone else is being screwed on the online vending machine opperation, now where have I seen that before.

This is not the case, they do not have enough inspectors to keep up with to many artist at this point, it will grow and everyone will get the same chance. This is not an exclusive high stuck up place.
