But I wish they imposed a size restriction on subscription, or an opt-out on it. 0.35$ for a maximum size just doesn't sound right, and when I ever upgrade to a 21-24MP cam, they will get my downsized versions. 81

Of course. The market has been taken since 2005. No new site made it after that, and no new site will. 83

It's quite easy to play.
Photo vs illustration, choose illustration. People vs no people, chose people. In case of people, chose the sexiest girl. In case of 2 sexy girls, chose the simplest or isolated one. 85

I'm not that much upset with ShutterStock, which was the first and original subs microstock. You knew what you entered into the moment you signed up. They make me 3 digits per month, more than 0.35$/sub sale, and I upload only the reduced size to them. Fair after all, I don't want my maximums up for grabs.
What irritates me more are PPDL microstocks turning into a subs-too site after sign-up. You start uploading maximum sizes, and then you suddenly see this: (my last 7 DLs on DT). ![]() The latest addition to this club is FeaturePics, although they will limit sub sales to a whopping low size of 8MP. 87

As with all pirated software and music, those people wouldn't buy the official product anyways. Incidentally, since our images are sold now as low as 0.16$, can we buy PS anywhere at a subscription price, like 1$ per package only? 89

General Stock Discussion / Re: The road to hell is paved with subscription« on: July 03, 2009, 08:09 »Here's another email from PN. To misrepresent my earnings like that they must be incredibly stupid or liars. Either way, I'm keeping my distance. I left that part of the email out for brevity. Don't forget to mention that PN asks a parking fee for your images > 10. They argued that their high prices would make up for that. Now that they seem to have opted for the slippery slope of subscription, I wonder if they're going to dump that parking fee too. I uploaded 10 to PN, 5 non-people, 5 models. They asked to email the Releases or fax them, for which I have no time. And that's it. 91

Is running a demo version "legal"? Assume you have viruses/malware every month and you have to reformat/reinstall Windows, included the PS demo for 30 days, is that "legal"?
