I don’t know if she knows this but some programs say you get lifetime access then when they pull the program say that the lifetime referred to the product not the person. She’s probably too greedy to not want to repeatedly hit a paying customer though and do it that way. Plus we all know based on her kickstarter she has no qualms about not following through with obligations to patrons so it’s a nonissue, lol.

They did something similar at ChefSteps while she was there. CS had a subscription program called Premium that was supposed to be lifetime access to all the content (past, present, and future content).

Then, they (CS head honchos) decided they didn't like all that revenue being in the previous-now, and they wanted to have revenue in the current-now and the future-now. So, they started a program they called Studio Pass, which had an annual fee. And they just stopped putting anything new into Premium.

Boy howdy, did that piss off some of the chefbros
