Keeping Insider status

After a month, I think I am going to cancel the Insider subscription. 
There really hasn't been much action here to warrant the $10 fee, and I don't sell that much, either.
So, how are you other insiders feeling?

I have not seen any true benefit to the insider at all.

I really do not use the blue book so that's a nogo.

I did start one thread in the insider lobby but it garnered little interest although it did net me a fellow audio enthusiast living very close to myself which was very neat.

Not sure just what Audiogon hoped from it.

I joined during the 50% 0ff promotion. Candidly, I haven't seen any benefit yet. If I cancel now, I'd probably see a $46 refund. I don't need the money that bad. I view it as a way to support the site. If the Audio Bluebook saves me money on one purchase, the money is well spent.

The blue book lists only 1 component in my comprehensive system.

There is less bagging/trolling

I've only been a member for a month so I am still reading...

There is a chat feature that I hadn’t known we had access to, which was nice to utilize. The forum was down a few days back and I was able to receive an answer from Tammy right then and there.

If you are selling or buying gear, the Blue Book is a very important source of information.  Other but I was paying that before that amount made me an "Insider" so whatever benefit comes from that was "free" to me.  But I do agree that there seems to be little benefit from the term.
