I'm in the same position as kodi. TechNet was well worth the subscription cost this past 12 months however I'm unsure I'll renew it for a while as I doubt I'll need anymore keys than I already have and it's a lot of money to spend if it won't get used.
Does anybody know, if I renew my sub will I get 10 more keys? I doubt it but you never know I guess. I'm due to renew at the end of this month but am undecided still. I'm thinking I should just download as many keys as I can now while I still can
I have downloaded all the keys and ISO's that i think i might need just in case.
Technet sent me an email stating there will be a new type of subscription available after 14th june, will wait and see what it is.

Gah! It better suck because I already had to renew
tw33k: No, if you renew you do not get 10 more keys :)
My Subscription is due to be renewed next week and I am renewing. One the best things i've done since joining this forum.

Read my previous post #13 before you renew, might be worthwhile waiting till after the 14th June
I have attached a copy of the Email

Mine was to run out 7 June so I couldn't wait until the 14th to see the different in the "new" offering but I did renew anyway, it's still a very good deal to me, for what I've "used" so far I would have paid much more.
