The second mistake was not charging for Avalon from the very first day.

Given their commitment to the Camelot information being available for free,
I would like to see them CHARGE for the videos, then release the transcripts later at no cost. You get the information but you pay for timeliness and convenience. But that is just me.
As I've stated AT LEAST 3 times in this thread that some people aren't going to donate until they know what's going on. I personally wouldn't donate a dime knowing that some would be cut off from posting valuable info if a subscription went into effect- I will not put my money (energy) into that sort of elitism of the old "pay to play" and only placing value on what you pay for paradigm. That's the sticking point. Read my posts before making assumptions. I've made quite a few in this thread saying just that.

I said I wasn't posting more in this thread but had to defend myself. And thanks again to Karen for working towards a donation based system.
