I'd like to join but it's a bit much for me right now. I wish they had different levels of membership to make it more affordable. But if you purchased all four issues of magazine at the news stand it would cost you $60. Still thinking about it.....

I'll join, just cause I can, but I'm underwhelmed.
You don't get very much for your 75 bucks and, in this economy, it sort of seems ill-timed.

Echoes my thoughts. I would rather put that 75 bucks toward a Disney vacation, or something that we might actually need. Given the amount of free Disney news and information available, I don't see a reason to throw money at them. Of course, as Disney enters into the online information market with a membership/subscription service, I am slightly concerned that they may become interested in targeting existing podcasts, forums, fan web sites, etc.

$75?!?!?! Pass...
And that's PER YEAR!

I agree that the price is a bit...well...pricey. The only thing that I would probably care about is the magazine (I don't really have the funds to shell out for nick-nacks and trips to CA) so there really is limited appeal there. I would have liked to see discouts and freebees (other than the one) for 75 bucks... Oh well, I guess I'll think about it...

do you have to pay to access the website? I'm confused.

No, your membership fee gifts you your initial member kit and a one year subscription to the magazine. Being a member of the club at that point gives you access to exclusive merchandise, events etc.

I joined, but I guess I knew I would even back when it was just leaked what it might be. I used to love the old Disney Insider magazine and the Disney Club. I know it's pricey but I guess they bet on suckers like me who will join any exclusive Disney thing!!

Yeah $75 per year is a bit much unless they add like discounts for Disney vacations and/or Merchandise in the Parks and DtD or something.

I don't believe it's $75 a year is it? I believe your $75 gets you a one year subscription to the magazine (and after that you'd have to subscribe to it separately) but the membership itself is a one-time thing. At least that's what I got out of it before I joined. If it is indeed $75/year I won't be joining again next year.

I just figured since it is a membership you would pay yearly. Hopefully someone knows for sure.
Doesn't this mean pay once a year:
Membership Enrollment Fee
The membership enrollment fee for the Program is US $74.99 plus applicable taxes for a one (1) year membership, which includes the membership benefits listed on the D23 Web site ( www.Disney.com/23) at the time of purchase. Memberships do not automatically renew. If you enroll in the Program before December 31, 2009, you will be enrolled as a D23 Charter member and may receive additional benefits available only to Charter members (the "Charter" year of the Program is the calendar year 2009). No cancellations or refunds are permitted and memberships cannot be returned for any merchandise credit. Membership cards and certificates have no cash value and will not be replaced if lost or stolen. All tax liability, including and without limitation, disclosure connected with the receipt and/or use of the Program and the membership benefits is the responsibility of the member.

Yep... it sure does mean one year. Oh well somehow I missed that. I don't care though. I'll see if I feel like I get $75 out of it and go from there. Something tells me that to renew your membership each year it'll be a lot cheaper. The initial $75 covers all the member materials etc. so one would hope maybe it'd be like $25-$30 to renew annually.
