I've tried pressing all the buttons, but nothing seems to happen. I'm sure that I'm just missing some obvious step..........no big deal, but it would be nice to try it out some time. Otherwise, no complaints. Thanks for such a quick response! Stu Peter,

It's a very impressive milestone. If I didn't still have 9 months on my premium subscription I would definitely renew at this time. I also benefit primarily from the "basic subscription" material, although it's useful to be able to keep just the reviews and dialogs on my i-pod, and the "line-by-line audio" is also very helpful. I haven't been able to figure out how to do the "audio-tape" thing........I'm just too technologically challenged for that. Maybe someone can give me some advice.! Stuart Congratulations!

The audio file is one way but the community that's built out of them is defiantly not. That's what I love about JPOD and why I wanted to be a part of it in some small way :) AndamanIslander-san,

"I bought a premium subscription <b>to show my support...</b>" It's funny to hear you put it that way...it made me realize I kind of feel the same way, y'know? The Basic Subscription has 98% of the features I normally use (though I do like to play with the Grammar Bank now and then) but I just feel like I spend so dang much time on this site it would feel weirdly dishonest not to pony up for the premium subscription, like I'd be ripping off a friend! I seem to spend a lot of my time thinking about JPod101, telling people about it, practicing, and it brings up really funny issues. Like, at this point, it's so hard for me to fight the feeling that I know the hosts personally! I'm not stupid, I understand this feeling is an illusion, I do realize podcasting is a one-way medium...but still! I guess it happens to people who watch soap operas too...there's this deceptive familiarity that comes from just hearing the same set of voices day after day after day. Not to freak you out or anything - (I do live in Europe, so you probably don't need an injunction just yet) - but it's just interesting. I don't suppose when Peter was sitting down to write his business plan 3 years ago he necessarily thought through the Obsessive Fan problem...but we're definitely out here. LEAD US PIITA-SAN! トムsan said…
