<HTML>I think opening up the member area for a short while at launch time might be an excellent idea indeed!
Even better would probably be the possibility for a potential new member to get a (time and/or funtionality limited) trial login. It\'s a bit hard to judge how good/usable the databases are just by looking at (for instance) the HMS Royal Oak page only. So why not give them some more freedom to better convince themselves?
Notice that a trial login doesn\'t need to be for free either (though it sounds like a good idea). You could come up with a system where a 10$ fee gives limited access (say for about a month or so), and a 40-50$ fee would give them the complete year. The trick of catching customers is to lure them... :-)</HTML>
