Thank you Paul. I will look into those suggestions and see if they work. Sounds very reasonable though.

This will need some modification, but there are some useful elements already that may be of help. There is a customer support date stored within the customer record which we use to control access to premium support. You could probably use this to control your access periods, so you shouldn't have to add date/expiry into the users table or the back end admin. You could then look at modifying the support ticket pages where this date is used to enable access to premium support, so that instead it enables download links, etc.

Thank you Paul, but I was quite aware of the downloadable products section of the catalog and it works nicely!
What I am trying to do is create an environment where a user purchases a month-to-month subscription service and then can download whatever they like. Each new month they may be introduced to new items which they can download, as long as they have subscribed.
This will require a flag that recognizes a user, that has logged in, as to whether or not they have a valid subscription.
I know what needs to be done, it will just take some time to put it all together. I was just wondering if anyone else had tried this before.
A few changes to the interface, especially the checkout window needs to be changed.
I want to limit them to 1 download per item, and even though I can turn the quantities off in the Backend by selecting "none" and it will not display a dropdown when adding an item, this does not continue to the checkout window (as it still allows the user the edit the value.)
Also, if I click the "Add" button several times, it will add that many more items to the cart. The point of selecting "none" is so that the user can't pick how many to add. If there is another reason, please enlighten me.
Thank you,
Robert

Hello everyone!
I was wondering if anyone has created a site that uses a subscription based service?
In other words, someone would come to my site and purchase a subscription that would then allow them to download pictures and such once they have paid for the service?
I'm currently working on a solution, but was wondering if anyone had some pointers or helpful hints.
Thank you in advance.
Robert
