Thanks from Georgia, Brad. But if you know anybody that can accelerate a Vert order, let me know. I ordered a TOP with mine (besides, I doubt it will ever reach -50F here.

Why doesn't someone that has downloaded the video upload it to www.yousendit.com and post the link here. It's free, and doesn't affect your bandwith except for the original upload.

That's hardly fair to those who have joined Team Mustang Source.

What are the benefits of joining Team Mustang Source, other than seeing the video of the commercial?

Hey Brad you can always have it as a torrent file. Bit Torrent stinks, but it won't eat up your bandwidth. I mean Blizzard does this for their crappy online RPG World of Warcraft.

There are over 100 commercials and videos to view. There is a hidden forum for those members, where news is posted first. It didn't work out for NAIAS this year, but they are offered Press Access to auto shows, and they'll get discounts on upcoming merchandise.

Why should they pay $15 to give it away for free? I'd be mad if I were a member of the Team and someone else did that. And why should I download and compress the video, upload it to my site for paying members to view, only to have someone grab it from my site without giving any credit back? If it comes to that, I just won't waste my time providing it to anyone. You can just grab it off some other Mustang site.

Your first justification for charging a fee was controling bandwidth. Now it's protecting membership status of people who have given you $$$, obviously to encourage future membership growth. A little less nobel sounding when you mention the $$$, huh?

If there is a free source to host it available use it or don't deny you are doing all this to generate additional income. :notnice:

I can't believe this. You do not have to pay. Surely you have more to thank Brad for than whine about the fact that you haven't got access to an area reserved for donators. It ain't $15 for one download.

I don't have paypal right now, any alternatives? Maybe I will get it, I need it for a few other things, and if I do money isn’t a problem so I can throw down 15.

Maybe postings like this should be kept behind the closed doors of the members only area. People are aware that this exsists and are welcome to join, however, for some it is a tough slap in the face to see a post like this one and not have the means to join. I myself am making double car payments since I couldn't part with my old Mustang and couldn't wait for my 05 not to mention double full coverage insurance, house payment, + a buck 98 a gallon for gas :bang: on and on and on...

And yes I did see it, and the TONS of others on the media site, and enjoyed every second of it. It was spectacular Thanks Brad.

I for one Have and will continue to enjoy this site and I contacted it with an alternate way to send in membership or donation fees for the upkeep of this site, it does take $$$ AND THINK OF THE TIME SPENT WHERE THAT OR THOSE INDIVIDUALES ARE NOT MOST LIKELY PAID, I there for went to my bank to get a draft to mail it in. I see it as Time Well Spent !

It's pretty easy! There are some here that appreciate what this site offers and have donated in order to help it along. If Brad or anyone else was making money on this, so what. That just means he was smarter than the next person in starting this site. Regardless of the money issue, I have learned tons of info here, met lots of people, and am entertained as well. It's cool to see what goes on around the U.S or the world with people who have similiar interests as myself. I visit other mustang sites as well, but this is one of the most informative, friendly and funnest of them all. I appreciate this site, so I, that's me, decided to pay. I don't believe that anyone strong armed me into paying. Some here should give back a little instead of always taking.

Why wouldn't he charge it for whatever reason? This site have more Mustang stuff than any other Mustang site on the net including MustangWorld and StangNet. Nobody is forcing you to pay, you can still be a member and post your comments.
