    I think in the email they sent out they mentioned that each IP would be able to download 5 per 24 hours and “registered users” 10 per 24 hours. Paid members would be restricted to 1,000 per 24 hours.

    It’s 15 bucks a year for VIP, if I understood it correctly, then I am of the opinion there is nothing here to get mad about for “regular users”.

      I can download ten subtitles just trying to find one good one for a single TV show episode

      Imo if they want to be so strict with downloading subtitles, they should raise the quality standards for the subtitles that are submitted.

        Honestly that’s a fair point too.

          Yes that doesn’t mean that opensubtitles can’t take their new found savings and use it to weed out poor quality submissions.

          Wikipedia editors do it for free and yet they still maintain a high standard of quality.
