While this looks like it might have some promise, I have some reservations:
1) There is no way to even try it out first without deciding whether to get a paid subscription (as cheap as it is, and even that is only for a short period). There are many other similar sites that offer both for-free and for-pay sevices, so users can get the basic features, and based on how they like them, they can decide to purchase the more full-featured premium memberships.
2) How can a for-pay-only service compete with so many other free services?
3) I have strong reservations about any service that has an "automatically renews every year" (or every month) feature without any way of opting out. How many people remember to cancel such services in time in order to get what they pay for, yet not renew?
