So they are locking the one feature i was waiting for behind a paywall of the pro-tools ?  Looking at what the tools offer, its only the shared DNA part that i would want and i don't think they are worth another £95 a year on top of what i pay in membership for the record access.....

Ok, slight update.  Its just come up with the upgrade message on the UK site, and its slightly cheaper at £4.99 a month.  That's still another £60 a year though

I bought this this morning, and I am not seeing anything any different on my Shared Matches.

So I rang them. Guy tried to tell me that I wouldn't have been able to see the shared matches, but there is NOTHING new that I'm seeing. So I've cancelled, will try again later.

Just checked mine, still no beta and no upgrade message, that I can see.  I only have a UK sub, will that affect being able to have a few months of pro tools? Anyone know?

I bit the bullet a couple of days ago, logged into the .com site paid my $10 + $2 tax which came through as £9.75 and waited. They're rolling it out over a few days, mine came through overnight last night and I've been playing with it today. I thought I would have to stay on the .com site but it works fine on .co.uk.
Too soon to tell if I'll keep it permanently but there's a ton more info to get through and it's turning up a lot of new stuff, also the tree checker is useful.

Ok thanks.

If they are looking to get all subs to worldwide, then I don't think it will work.  Possibly they will lose money if they wish to exclude people.

Oh well...

Just to add

Have been offered the pro tools update today.  So it is with any sub you can aquire the addition, not just worldwide.

I decided to relent today, and went to sign up. I'm now being quoted £7.99?!
