I don't believe that she offers DVDs (hard copy DVDs, that is). It's all digital now.

One can either subscribe to everything and stream, which I chose not to do; or buy individual DVDs that are all digital, which is what I'm interested in.

Ah okay. That makes more sense

confirming that she no longer sells hard physical DVDs anymore.

and note my previous post that you don't get a "download" file that you can keep forever - that was my misunderstanding when i recently purchased one of her old workouts from her site that had now been converted to a digital format.

in other words, you DON'T have the ability to save it to your hard-drive, back it up on a DVD-R, etc.

you can only log in to the site and play the video you purchased.

Thanks, Jeannine, for all that info. I'm a big Margaret Richard fan.

Oh sorry I don't know about the downloads. I just know the streaming is extremely problematic. When I had it a couple of years ago I didn't have issues accessing the workouts but I think the problem has escalated recently. And it is very expensive compared to other streaming subscriptions.

Oh, I do wish that she would hurry up and announce the sale already . Me, getting all impatient. I guess that no one here has heard anything.

I am in her Facebook group and people constantly post that they cannot log on or it is not working.

I haven’t used her streaming service, agree that it’s pricey, but I have two seasons of Unplugged downloads. I bought them during one of her sales several years ago. They work great for me, never had any issues streaming them. I also like that each workout is fully chaptered.

I'm not interested in streaming. Depending on the discount, I'd like to buy several of her downloads.

I know. I can't believe she can't resolve this. I think it was recently down for a couple of weeks.

That's good to know that the downloads work great and are fully chaptered.
