I agree there is a problem with the premium suites. I was extremely disappointed with the choices. I didn't feel they were mainstream enough, especially Kryponite (which incidentily shows an update as of March 2004. The other one is way old, 11/2003.
I didn't get the subscription for those suites anyway, but had wished I had got something more useful or at least something to choose from.
I subscribe to ODNT, so I do find being able to use SDC and then the Skin Browser within it is a benefit over the website. I find it far more accessible and easier to use than the website. Whenever I browse skins on the webside I find it far too difficult to see the newer skins, which is primarily what I am after.
Having unlimited bandwidth hasn't mattered to me as I do not believe I am a very high downloader.
In fact for me I primarily have subscribed in order to support the site as I enjoy the community and skins. I think it is up to those who continually refuse to subscribe to provide answers why they don't, at least other than financial reasons.

I haven't subscribed yet, but have bought Object Desktop, CursorXP Plus, ObjDock Plus & Dx Pro. For a while & didn't realize there was a distinction between StarDock & WinCustomize. I'm really happy with SD & WC, & have mixed feelings about not being a member because I understand that WC is intended to be a stand-alone company. There aren't any benefits I want beyond those that come with the software. I guess I'm trying to say I wish there was a discount for subscribing after spending so much for software.

I think 'discount for software owner' is really what the current price really reflects.  It's quite economical when compared with a 'similar' Deviantart.com sub.

For me....a sub should come with a hot Porsche and leggy blonde ....but I'll settle for a leggy Porsche and a hot blonde....don't want to be too picky...

I say you make a "premuim subscription" being about $10 - $20 more that offers unlimited premium suite downloads. But, I believe also in the more premi's for the current subscription. Maybe up it to 5.

Look at all the complaints about the premium skins.................. I seem to recall 'someone' suggesting they be updated, back in December of 2004.

I'd like more choices for the premium suites.
say I could pick one or two premium suites from the existing ones.
I mean if you don't like Kryptonite or Agustus , what use are they?

More "premium" suites...maybe one every six months or so...for subscribers. It'd be the gift that kept on giving.

I'd like a better way to see what new skins were added since you last browsed the site...

better search in galleries and forums. Title & author is not enough.

It would be nice to receive a free game or two.

I do not know how it could be set up, but perhaps a way to allow access to one or two current games in the "Games" section of SDC - with no update allowed (or a 90 day free update allowance).

Since I am not a real gamer, I have not used this game system yet and do not know the actual logistics involved, but it might be a good enticement for people like myself who like to play games every so often.

Perhaps just a subscription to GalCiv2 included for the duration of the WC subscription or something?

Use Stardock Central....look in the options on the left side...about5 or 6 from the bottom is the Chat area. Oh wait, I just realized that you have to be a current customer to have SDC not necessarily a WC member.
