Anyone have feedback on Audiogon's Insider membership?


I'm curious about joining but Audiogon's Insider but its information about the feature is a bit conclusory.  I'm very open to paying a fee to have access to a forum of paying members (for numerous reasons).  I'm wondering if the Insider has critical mass to support the forum, how folks like it, etc.  

I noticed that a previous discussion thread on this topic has been removed.

I guess I don’t see the point of it.  We already have forums.  The ads don’t bother me as they are always around the border and out of my sight as I focus on Agon listings or forums.  
I guess the more I think about it I do find the ads annoying and too busy looking.....
Well here is the real plan based on my speculation.  The regular forum we all use is going away at some point in the future.  As the forum becomes more moderated we will need to pay for the moderators. In addition, Agon now has another income source that offsets the fact that buying and selling is slowing here and in HEA in general.  The only way to be part of the forums, at some point in the future, is to pay.  Just my speculation.
