I might see no more than five per year that I want to see. I will probably join for a month at some point and just check out what I like.<br /><br />I have not been a member for a while. But if they have a one-month package, I'd recommend you take that. That way you can check it out for a month and see lots of great stuff. They have a huge library of videos now, so you are bound to find some really good stuff.Michael Goellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14512012158305281566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-54618113110855865162016-01-20T16:10:37.441-05:002016-01-20T16:10:37.441-05:00I'm thinking of subscribing, but now that it&#...I'm thinking of subscribing, but now that it's been ten years since this review, any additional thoughts? By today's standards, the production quality of some of these videos is lacking, but that doesn't bother me, as the quality is good enough for the intended purpose. My interest is mostly in the openings videos, but I haven't found it easy to search to see if they have what I'm looking for. Are the website navigation and searching any better on the other side of the paywall?BikingBrianhttp://www.bikingbrian.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-74024116846999960592013-02-28T15:19:33.646-05:002013-02-28T15:19:33.646-05:00Everything from chess to medical lectures can now ...Everything from chess to medical lectures can now be reviewed.

I like it alot. They have a whole series on the Scandinavian that I play. And a video on the Two Knights Tango. Both gave me new ideas on these openings. I like that I can get an idea of the thinking process of IMs and GMs in these lectures.

They are great, and very responsive. When I requested something on the Siberian Trap in the Smith Morra gambit, someone had it done within a month. Pretty sweet.<BR/><BR/>One criticism (despite what I just wrote about an opening) I have is that it is very opening-heavy, though they seem to be adding more annotated games lately.Blue Devil Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045468316613818510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12844144.post-1162609259023482332006-11-03T22:00:00.000-05:002006-11-03T22:00:00.000-05:00Fantastic review!
