How many people out there believe that all of us who subscribe to .Mac should also receive a discount for Panther. Also what do you think the price should be? Please be realistic.

.Mac subscribers should get $20 off the price of Panther. But if Apple did this, I'm sure they would either (a) make it for a limited time only, or (b) apply it to new subscribers only.
My 2 cents.

You CAN get this. There's a deal when you renew... like $20 off at the Apple store.
So use it for Panther. Voila.

That's what I'm doing. Edu price = $69 - $20 coupon = $49 Panther. Can't beat that.

Hate to say it, but the fine print from the .mac renewal stuff says that the $20 can't be used on educational purposes. I was planning on doing that too, till I read that. 
Think I'm just gonna pay the 69 for Panther, and get myself a $20 iCurve.

I wrote a suggestion to Apple's .mac...here was my suggestion:
Have two versions of .Mac, one that is $200 or so dollars and includes free OS Upgrades and maybe select Beta build seeds of OSes
and have the original .mac that most of us have come to love (.mac members).
Or you could make a Premier version of .mac that would offer free OS upgrades (10.3->10.4) and free Pro App upgrades (FCP4 -> FCP5) ect. for like $500.00 or something.
I donno, just an idea. That's where computing in general is going anyways, completely service based.

I'd like to see .Mac available to Panther buyers for $50 instead of the $100 it is now. More importantly than the price though, I really think they need to up the 100 MB iDisk space and keep the price the same. That's a trend that should continue every year. I wonder how long they'll keep charging us $100 for 100 MB of space. It gets used up fast.

more .mac bitching...
If you don't like .mac, don't buy it...
If Apple wants to hook .mac people up with $20 - $40... I'm cool with that as I wouldn't buy .mac if it was $50... well, maybe I would...
I would rather see .mac stand on it's own feet.

I got .mac because for $50 it was worth it but having an OS upgrade and my .mac renewal coming up I picked the Upgrade.
I think it was foolish to have an OS upgrade coming out the same time most people are going to renew.
In one hour I will no longer be a .mac subscriber.
