We do need to make it easier for folks to spot the free content versus rental. And we will continue to look for other ways to simplify our pricing. Of course, our challenge is getting all content providers on the same page with a common pricing scheme. Feel free to submit bugs to customercare@akimbo.com, but we also need to make that more obvious. We will add a lot of bug fixes in a few weeks (again, this is a preview release), but in the meantime, it's important that users install MCE Roll Up 2 for the best experience. We do have a "subscription" feature which is very similar to TiVo's season pass. It's used today for channels like Major League Baseball and Turner Classic Movies. We only use this for shows that get new episodes regularly, not for permanent archives. Indeed, HD is on the way. The selection will start out with a few dozen titles and then grow with time. Be sure to let us know what kind of HD content you want us to carry, either on you blog or through our web site.
