It's been a while since I have been here. It used to be that in addition to making requests, a subscription gave you access to premium streams. But it looks like they are available now for free. Am I right? |

Yep at the moment there the streams are equal for everyone.
VIP benefits:
- Request more often
- More favorite entries in your favorite list (500 tracks and 500 albums, non-vip 100 tracks and 50 albums)
- Request wait timer
- Unshared requests
- Last 100 request history
- voting for the SST awards

Just prodding, but why remove hi-def streams from a paid subscription? I think some would be more inclined to pay for better quality.
Come summer when I'm home, I usually subscribe to SST so I'm just curious on the change of policy. |

There are a few reasons why they are free now, the most important is we want to reach as many people as possible.

for streaming i'm happy with the current quality. anything higher to near lossless would be too much bandwidth.
