I'm also a subscriber. For the price, I think it's a good deal.

I subscribed - it's probably still an active subscription. But these days I get a lot more use out of GoGOD instead.

It's just a personal preference.

I'll add to the chorus. It's a great service and well worth the yearly subscription.

Another voice in the chorus - active subscriber, I check at least twice a week to download new commentaries. They're well-written and quite understandable.
