Hey guys!

What's your favorite (paid) subscription-based websites and why?

I REALLY hope I'm not breaking any Café rules for asking this question. If so, you know what to do moderators.
Smile Smile Smile

A little about me (and what I'm looking for) - I LOVE books but don't mind videos. I don't frequent many magic-related websites so I'm not usually up-to-par with the "latest & greatest" effects. I enjoy studying the works of Jason England, Steve Forte, and Darwin Ortiz (among many others). Forte's Gambling Protection Series is one of my favorite video series. Ortiz's Annotated Erdnase is one of my favorite books. Many years ago, I seem to remember a website that gave (legal!) online access to a collection of magic books. Perhaps that's still around?

Smile I appreciate any and all recommendations Smile

Reel Magic is a great site with tons of content for $5/month. You'll get much more than your money's worth.

Does Genii qualify? You get access to every issue of Genii ever published.

I'll agree with Reel Magic, $5/month for access to everything is beyond amazing.

Other sites:
Jay Sankey's Inside Deception:
http://www.insidedeception.com/

Ellusionist MagicStream:
https://magicstream.com/

Aaron Fishers Conjurors Community:
http://conjuror.community/

I've been a member of all these at one time or another, and the only one's I'm still subscribed to are Inside Deception and Reel Magic.

Ok now I feel like you're pulling my chain. Could someone explain?

The Jerx (thejerx.com) has a ton of free content in the blog posts but there is also a monthly magazine that is only available to subscribers. Of course, that contains even more quality material unavailable on the blog.
