But let's just test the theory that a lower membership rate will offer significant savings that will entice more members, taking your figures as a basis. Let's say they introduce a new membership level that costs $US20. Your download cost remains the same at $US504. So your total cost for this level of membership is $US524, which at 0.56 is $AUD936 p.a. Are you really trying to tell me there are 10,000s of people out there who can't afford to pay $AUD1,114 p.a. but can afford to pay $AUD936 p.a.?

Bruno, your figure is quite erroneous. While desirable, membership for many is just not feasible. As explained in my previous message, which you appear to have missed, the real cost of a silver club membership and its required download capacity for me here in eastern Australia would be $US504 + $US120 = $USD624.00, which at 0.56 is $AUD1114.00 p/a.
Repeat: $AUD1114.00 !!!!
