This could be interesting, but only with a knowledge of how many courses will be available each month and knowing which ones would be available in advance.

This is a very interesting idea and seems appropriate for the nature of the material.
I think it would be helpful to have a posted calendar that shows the active and future life of the modules on one page.

This is great! I've been hoping for something like this.

So I have to rent for 3 months first to buy at a discount? Is this discount big enough to warrant this route over an outright purchase?Liz Roland said:Can I purchase a course form the Mobile Ed Subscription?

I own 51 Mobile Ed courses already. What happens if the rental model is only currently offering courses I already own? I am well convinced that these courses are worth $50 a month. If I know the upcoming courses are ones I own can I withdraw from the plan for the month?Liz Roland said:Is the Mobile Ed Subscription plan dynamically priced?

I wish this had been an option from the beginning. I am happy to see it now.

I like the interface of the Timeline Reference Tool, and it would fit the subscription calendar nicely. Can you create a special server side instance, throw in the module subscription names & dates into the Timeline DB and give the output through the webserver? I haven't looked to see if Timeline is using Chromium the same way the homepage is, but if so, hopefully that would be a relatively easy project.

This looks like a good plan. It would be nice to know what's coming up, but I'm glad that the website explains which courses are available for the present month. For those who didn't click through, this is the March offering:
- Mobile Ed: BI100 Learn to Study the Bible
- Mobile Ed: CM100 Basic History of Preaching
- Mobile Ed: MI102 Current Issues in Missions
- Mobile Ed: NT156 Understanding Easter: The Significance of the Resurrection (Available soon)
- Mobile Ed: NT211 Introducing the Gospels and Acts: Their Background, Nature, and Purpose
- Mobile Ed: OT391 The Shema
- Mobile Ed: PC201 Pastoral Ethics
So long as the next month is published before the subscription renewal would be taken, then I would be happy.

As much as I dislike subscriptions, this one deserves attention. I am going to be watching carefully. At $499.99/year (which is probably a great deal) I would still want to choose my own courses and not want someone else deciding what few courses would be available to me. If we knew ahead what was coming, a whole year might be well worthwhile. $49.99/mo isn't bad either if the courses are ones I would select. I would probably go the monthly route.
I am liking this idea.
Edit: Seeing the list above from Mark, that would certainly be worth subscribing to get.

We will be sending an email 2 weeks prior to the end of the month to all subscribers detailing the new course offerings for the next month. The same list of new course offerings will be posted on the PDP page 2 weeks in advance so everyone will know what course are coming up in the next month and what courses are expiring from the subscription plan.

If I pay for the yearly subscription ($499) and became dissatisfied with the product after 30 days, what are my options?

Is it set up so we can subscribe or unsubscribe month to month based on the offerings and interest level? That would be the best setup, in my opinion!

We have a 30 day return window. You can return it within 30 days for a full refund. After 30 days we would be unable to issue a refund.

I sure hope so! [:D] That's what it sounded like to me, but a confirmation would be nice.
If anyone tries it out as an early adopter, please let us know how it works and your satisfaction level with it. I'm seriously considering this.0 -

That's what it sounded like to me, but a confirmation would be nice. I can confirm it, albeit unofficially, because there is no reason to believe that this system works any differently from Logos/Verbum Now and Logos/Verbum Cloud, which both allow you to buy access either one month at a time or one year at a time.

Liz, is there any word on what kind of discount is being offered to subscribers for the courses after the monthly access to them is expired?

Hi Liz,
I signed up for the monthly Mobile Ed subscription to try it out. I did notice though that in my subscription list for my account it says this:
Mobile Ed Subscription - Monthly Subscription (6 Month)
Is that meaning there is a minimum 6 month subscription period (boo hiss), or that it is $49.99 for six months subscription (yippee), or neither or those interpretations (oh well)..
Thanks!
Jim

Liz,
Please correct me if I'm wrong..
- We'll get new sets of video every month
- But we get to keep them for 3 months instead of 1 month

Thanks for brining this issue to our attention. The SKU description has been updated to reflect the Mobile Ed 1 Month Subscription. We do not have a 6 month option for the subscription.

Yes, each course will be available for at least 3 months.
I don't quite see how this will work. Say for example Matthew subscribes from March, my understanding is that as things stand he would have access to NT211 Introducing the Gospels and Acts for March April and May. However, if Luke subscribes from May, does NT211 drop off at the end of May, or will it be available for May June and July so that Luke has access for 3 months?

Will the Mobile Ed videos that are part of your subscription be available on the Apple TV app?

Thanks Liz. I think the subscription model does suit these video courses well - I think I would probably only watch the mobile ed videos once anyway.
( For books I think I'd still rather buy outright to keep permanently in my library as for many I would reuse.)

Question: Courses will available for 3 months from the time you start your subscription, or the time they were first offered? For example, if I start my subscription towards the end of March, have I already missed one month out of possible three for these courses? And, how will I know how long a course remains available to me individually?
