I won't subscribe because i find a lot of the content is taken and re-reported without any credit. [...]

Really? I read most of the news articles here and I've never seen the reporters write something without giving credit to the source by using an in-line link or something else.

Can someone please list ALL the features of Subscriber2 please?

We never get to hear of the secret forums or Beta Features? A little insight and more people would probably subscribe.

- Subscriber forum

- No ads on the site

- Early access to new features; for example: Subscribers were able to test Atlas before it was officially launched

- No flood control, longer edit time for posts

- The good feeling of having supported a website you care about.

Anything being tested now shiftyninja.gif? And is the Subscriber forum the Members metropolis (?) for Subscribers only?

Nothing is being tested at the moment, and the subscriber forum is separate from the Members Metropolis.

To find out more details you'll have to subscribe. ;)

Before i became a member of staff i subscribed to show my dedication, Love and support for neowin. When the tier 2 ad removal package came along, well that was a bonus!

If you ask me, Being a subscriber is not about buying features, its about supporting the site and getting some fun and features in return.

I don't subscribe for the extra bits - I just wanted to give something back after lurking for so long. The extra bits are nice though :)

+1 I subscribed for the exact same reason. I don't post much, hell, you could say I barely post at all, but I spend hours upon hours on neowin weekly so subscribing was my way of giving back to the community and the staff.

Yeah the bonuses seem small because we don't want to restrict members or force people into paying for content.

The Backstage Pass forum really is just a relaxed Members Metropolis that requires little or no moderation, which is the reason it's still there.

Ah. That's a dare.? :devil:

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
