I have just noticed that On Demand Subscriptions are back! 

That's good news!

Did they really ever leave?

You don't remember that one day where the sky fell, and... uh, but it... oh wait... never mind.

Mine never went away

Mine never went away but they are well down on previous months, so perhaps they have done something?

Glad to hear SS is offering OD to customers again.  I was still getting a few trickling in from credits already purchased, but it will be nice to see them pick back up.

I love the OD's; such a nice reprieve from the paltry subscription royalties!

Good to hear as I am anxious to get my first OD at my new rate after getting my SS raise

any news on the future of bigstockphoto, I much prefer OD from shutterstock than sales on bigstock.

They actually did. You, me and many others didn't notice, because we were still getting previously purchased downloads. They were about to be gone because I was getting less and less everyday.

Good that they will pick up again!

Perhaps everyone raising their voices here on MSG made an impact ?

What I meant was that I have had more OD sales this month than other months.  I have so far made 40$ more on OD sales than I did last month so I didn't notice any change for the worse. Saying that I guess that it would have been even better without the changes.

Could have been better without the changes, I agree. But what I meant was better or not, had SS not brought them back, all of us were doomed to have zero ODs, very soon.

I just got an OD at my new commission rate of $2.48 so I am very happy that they appear to be here to stay at least for now ...

Don't know, nothing ever changed for me. I get subs and ELs and that's about it.

I have seen a big upswing in OD sales this week.  Before they had slowed to a trickle. 

I'm very glad SS has started selling them again. 

Today is very slow for me, even with "25 a day", just 1...

I hope next time SS conducts an experiment like this, they do it when there isn't a major gift-giving holiday the next month.  All those missing OD sales means less money for Christmas.   

Good to see the ODs are back!

It's great to see they are back and more than usual for me. I even had the same picture sold twice OD on the same day
