Answer: You get ripped off for $60, plus you support a disreputable outfit.
I boycott their website. They harvested email addys & listed them as "subscribers" when they were petitioning advertisers,( they wanted to show a large "subscription base").
Their "street address" was a small mom & pop mail drop, and their phone number was that of a body shop that hadn't heard of them.
That makes them spammers, a fraud*, and I haven't even gotten onto the plagiarism** part yet, where they take articles from other sources & post them as their own.
Do you REALLY want to give someone like that your money?
