I'm opted in and had my BME in May, just 15% below SS, my #1 earner. If I excluded all the ELs I got on SS, SXP would have actually surpassed it (for the first time in two years).

My credit sales are 62% of the total in number of downloads and 90% in comissions.

SXP has been a steady performer for me since day one. I'm staying opted in, at least for now.

I opted out after the SS raise and will stay opted out until SXP raise our commission.

So the June numbers are in, and the results were great. I beat my BME set last October by 10% without a single subscription sale. Three straight months of growth after a steady decline since subscriptions were introduced definitely tells me that opting out is a viable option and doesn't diminish sales.

I'm going to stay opted out.

This is my second full month after opting out and I'm pleased so far with that decision. SXP has moved into a solid fourth position: IS/SS/DT/SXP. I don't have my stats with me this summer so I'm not sure this was a BME for SXP. But subs would have only added a few dollars onto my total there if I was opted in -- and if they didn't simply replace a regular sale. So far the results are telling me to stay opted out.

I opted out last month and my sales were down by about 40% from my BME. I have reluctantly opted in again this month to see if that has something to do with it.

I'm opted in, and sales are down. But overall, not just in credit sales. At this point I can't tell if subs are having any impact at all on my credit sales, since even my sub sales are down this month.
