Remasterings

Totem should consider charging an additional fee for upgraded cards. This would give you additional revenue and encourage you to continue with the remastering. I suggest that the fee be 5 credits. If I buy a 1080p card now, I'll pay 20 credits (less my discount). If you upgrade it and I want the upgrade, I pay an additional 5 credits (less my discount). If I wait till after the upgrade I pay 30 credits (less my discount = 3 credits). I think this is a positive motivator all around. First it encourages me to buy 1080p cards that are eligible for a remastering. Second, it encourages you to do more remastering.

This same pricing could be applied to remastering 720p cards to 1080p. I have more than 600 720p cards and about half could be remastered based on their card number. (I understand that cards higher than about 700 were shot with a 1080p camera.) Many of these cards are from models I really like and I'd be delighted to pay 3 credits per card to be able to play them at 1080p. Right now, I seldom play 720p cards because they look so bad on my 4K display, but 1080p cards are OK.

Please consider this. You could make some additional money and I can play some favorite models more often.

I realize this is likely to require some significant changes to your software and database. I'm a programmer and a software designer. The changes are not trivial, but it can be done. The trick would be to add a maximum_purchased_resolution to the database table that stores each members card collection. Then you'd need logic to check this. The UI would need to change to warn the user that the upgrade for a remastered card has an additional cost. Again, this is not trivial, but it can be done. I suspect the additional revenue can more than justify the software development costs.

New Version (1.2.142) of iStripper is Out!

I just want to give the team my thoughts about this new version issue.

I'm more or less in the same situation like WA.
But lucky me it wasn't necessary to find me a download solution.

I had an older backup and with a little folder synchronisation I got most of
my purchased clips back. For those I've lost I maybe will do a re-download
of the complete cards or if offered from the demo sometimes. I also have no download-limits.

But first I will wait what Totem will do to solve this issue so I went back to an older version for the moment.

From my point of view the team made the mistake not only in programming, they made it
when they decided the way how to do this.

1) It's absolutely clear that they want to limit the amount of previews for non-paying users.
I completely agree with that. It's a business decision. Maybe a not so good one to do this for all members.
They could use the member level to distinguish carefully.

2) for the purchased clips:

If some members are ***** about their disk space you can do a lot without annoying anyone.

You could inform the user within the software and on the website about the file-size for shows before downloading.
This would help them to realize how much space they will need.

and acting like a professional software and

provide a button on the card to delete the demos card by card if you want to.

or/and provide a button in the settings to delete multiple or all demos if you want to.

or right mouse-click options ....

....

(don't forget the possibility to offer a re-download only for the demos)

But always with prompting the user to decide it by themselves.

You never have to decide to delete anything from my harddisk without my permission!

if you dont have the resources to do so you could maybe
teach them how to use their windows explorer - do a little .demo search through the models folder to delete
them on their own or provide them offers for cheap external harddrives, whatever...

but again - never delete anything from all user-harddisks without permission! That's the annoying point.
only viruses acting like this. A trusted software always ask!

I will not install any further version without asking me before deleting something...

PS:
I didn't checked my network traffice while using the new version so I can't help here.
the older version is quiet
