I thought this deserved it's own thread. Here's a link to what we've all seen already:

Please try and keep whining, trolling, pedantry and other habits that can make you unlovable as a human being to a minimum. I'd like everyone to keep the discussion based around two things:
1) Your concerns. There are three concerns for me as a potential customer:
- How much it costs. If it's only like three bucks per month, sure, I'm on board. I don't like that the free version is basically a demo but I'll pay.
- The fact the subscription is 'annual'. How can I possibly pay for a full year, I have no assurance they aren't going to just pull the plug a few months in and there goes my money.
- The difference between the second and third level accounts. I'm REALLY worried about what features are going to be available to 'pro' account subscribers that won't be to everyone else. If must-have features come with a significant markup that's a problem.
2) Your hopes. Things you would like to see implemented and added going forwards.
- If they win some faith back, I'd really like an option to just buy an account with a duration of forever. In effect it would be like buying a game off steam.
- I'm hoping the interface revamp will open up the possibility of some really nice features, like integrated demo management or downloading.
