P.R.O. are not worth the hassle Great service in general, love it! For the music part, it is hard to search for music, as defined in the system. It's also hard to get into the cart when you have a subscription, where it's the easiest place you can store the songs you want to download. Finally, for the P.R.O. songs, the Youtube AdRev system is very quick to flag a problem (in the 20-30 minutes typically), but the "will quickly resolve" can take actual DAYS, leading to delays to publish or demonetization (my first P.R.O. purchase got demonetized on Monday 6:30AM, and as of Tuesday 10:30PM, it's still not resolved - remember, I purchased the license for that piece of music!). My first experience with P.R.O. purchase will probably be the last due to that, unless they all use their "AdRev tag" system, and it's not possible to know which song has this available until purchase. So I will never take P.R.O. songs for BGM anymore. Too bad because they are great artists and I'm all for artists receiving their fair share (hence me using a service such as Pond5 in the first place)

Thanks for the clips Thanks for the clips. I don't mind paying for them. But I do mind being shoe-horned into an unending subscription. I think that if you want a subscription, you should be given that opportunity, not forced into one. You may think it's good for you, but it's bad business.

I love the folders we can make I love the folders we can make, video downloads or still trials to test, and the ease of downloading and re-downloading. Fair prices.

Looking for? You will find everything there. I don't know what I could complain about. Personally, I found everything I needed on the site. From a good collection of sounds to professional videos made with good taste. Of course there is a lot of husk, but maybe someone is looking for this too. I don’t know what else can be improved. Make video prices lower? But the authors also want to eat.
