Congrats @Yohann PERRET for winning the Golden Ears Award!

SoundGym's lifetime option should be 2.5x the cost of it's yearly option (instead of the current 3.33x) and it's yearly option should be half it's current cost ($75 instead of $150).

I wish I had started on SoundGym MUCH sooner but the cost was prohibitive and it's not something you can truly appreciate the value of until you start working hard at it.

I use SoundGym every single day and plan to for the remainder of my subscription - but when it's over, I won't renew. I believe there is extreme value in ear training but, if after a year of serious ear training I am still not working with music often enough for THAT to be my ear training, then I can never justify a renewal.

Just saying, I would like to have permanent access to the features here but $500 is unreasonable and, for many, $150 a year is unreasonable. I convinced myself to do 1 year and I'm glad I did but that's where it will have to end.

If the lifelong cost was ~$200 and the annual cost was ~$75 - I would have lifetime access and SG would have an extra $50. Win-win for me personally but I suspect they would also get MANY more subs as well. I could've convinced myself to try it out for $75 a decade ago but their current pricing system had me wait until basically my entire life was settled (which, sadly, for most is also the time when they've completely given up on music).

My 2c, do with it what you will...

Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Good luck to everyone on their journeys and with their finances c:
