Re: [Cooker] Saving Mandrake - a Users Perspective

[Jason]

And in NZD (New Zealand Dollars) it is even higher, so yes, that IS a lot of money to many and yes I think there are MANY (millions even) users who would shell out for a lower tier in the club that would allow for free ISO downloads during the first month of release. I started this thread and I think some need to re-read my original post because they just seem to be misinterpreting it...and some of the posts that have followed.

Can most people really not afford $120 p.a. for Silver Club membership (even discounting the benefits one receives for membership)?

Bruno, your figure is quite erroneous. While desirable, membership for many is just not feasible. As explained in my previous message, which you appear to have missed, the real cost of a silver club membership and its required download capacity for me here in eastern Australia would be $US504 + $US120 = $USD624.00, which at 0.56 is $AUD1114.00 p/a.

Repeat: $AUD1114.00 !!!!
