Nice work! But $9 a month? That's a much as as Netflix subscription..
Don't see the long term value to have a recurring payment..

@kmnei Hi Karim, to be fair – you don't use Netflix to make money. A lot of people use these templates in highly paid consulting projects or to create products that generate income. They enable designers to shave off a lot of hours and get results faster. It's hard to put a price on that.
Some of these tools, like the iOS App Icon Template, have evolved over years (and with more than a million downloads). The idea behind the subscription, rather than a one-off payment, was a tough choice. But ultimately, these things evolve and one of the core principles behind the move from my free http://appicontemplate.com to this, was that I wanted to be able to support this far into the future - updating existing templates when requirements change and slowly but surely adding new ones to the collection. In that light, the subscription model made more sense to me. :)
