Really bummed this is coming to an end. I almost want to do the 12 month sub just to hang around for as long as possible (I’m a masochist I guess).
It's a good price and I was pretty tempted. Just a lot of money to lose if/ when VMP goes belly up.

Do it we can watch everything burn down around us together! but seriously at this point if you want to stay a member it seems the smarter thing to 25 a month vs 43 is a big deal, but they wont offer that forever.Really bummed this is coming to an end.

Company tried to get too big without doing any of the necessary foundational work. Should have stuck to their bread and butter. A few great tracks and minimal exclusives. Anthologies and all of the fluff (remember when they would shoot like music videos for certain tracks???? Jesus what a waste of money).

Did I miss something where Pauly responded with :/ on reddit? I keep seeing it pop up everywhere now and saw something about how he messaged a mod to apologize for it?

He uses that after his responses alot and has for while, just a way to bring a little levity to a situation. But people were obviously riled and now throwing it in his face. We'll probably see it for years now. It's going to be the new "what would you do with more time?".
What would you do with more :/ ?
I really think the biggest mistake they made here (and Paul admitted this on Reddit), was hiking it up 50% at once instead of gradually which understandably comes across like greed.
I know many will disagree me but they've clearly been wanting to move to that more audiophile niche space, like Speakers Corner, Analogue Productions, Mofi, etc and this is bringing pricing in line with that. Whether they actually put out a product in line with that quality or worth that money is completely subjective. It's your money for discretionary purchases and you can choose to support the company or not, and support a company like this or not.
I think it's absolutely wild that people spend so much on MMJ releases which, despite amazing quality, I feel are way more overpriced than VMP and are a much shittier company when it comes to gouging customers. But to each their own
Don't get me wrong, the price increase sucks, and they went about it wrong. And I feel bad for those who really enjoyed the service and can't afford it anymore. But at the end of the day, it's just records and if you don't think it's worth it anymore, it's definitely easy to take your money and buy elsewhere. And if that's the case, VMP likely wasn't giving you the albums you really wanted for your collection anyway.
