Poll: How do you currently access Cathe’s content? (Multiple Choices)

[Debinmi]

With the recent flash sales for streaming services, I'm curious how people now access Cathe's content. Feel free to add other options in the comments.

I used to buy DVDs and when Cathe started offering the Lives to purchase as downloads I bought quite a few of them. Then Covid hit and shipping from USA to NZ was terrible, so when we got better internet, I switched to OnDemand. Now I hardly ever use my DVDs and purchased downloads. I love OnDemand with the workout blender.

I depend on my DVDs. I have not made the plunge to LIVE or On Demand. Hoping to maybe next year but DVDs are my crutch.

Have given up on ordering DVDs. it costs too much. Downloads for me from now on. I still use my DVDs, of course. Downloads are better and I expect DVDs will just be too outdated to continue selling. On demand, streaming—I could but I don’t want to.

I've been using downloads since they were first introduced and now I also subscribe to Live. At first I just bought a few and then signed up. I find I thoroughly enjoy the life workouts. Downloads and live fare the way to go or me.

I've had her OnDemand with Live since day one. The last series or dvds I bought was RWH. This last sale was the first time I bought a whole year at once. I couldn't resist getting that much money off instead of paying monthly. If they have the same sale next year, I'll do it again, but I love her live and OnDemand. I recently gave away about half or more of my Cathe dvds because I just don't use them. I'll probably get rid of the rest in the up coming year or so, esp. if I decide to move.

DVDs! I love the premixes, bonuses, chaptering and having an actual DVD in my hand. Also easier to pause, rewind, fast forward as needed.

I don't have reliable internet for On Demand and I don't have the techno wherewithal for the blender.

I always buy the Downloads with the DVDs "just in case" for the few extra bucks. Just in case of what?....I don't know.

I think most people aren't aware that not everyone can easily connect to the internet. When we first moved to our current location, semi-rural, my phone service used the Sprint network & I would have to drive a mile down the road to our major shopping district to make any lengthy phone call because service was so spotty. And wired phone service was not available - AT&T refused to even come out to see if we could be hooked up even though their pole is at the end of our driveway. We'd take the laptop to the coffee shop or local restaurants during low-use times to use their wifi to get on the internet. We switched to Verizon which had a little better service (it's gotten better) and used their little hot-spot thingy for internet, but it was metered & extremely expensive. We were finally able to get cable internet (and phones) about 5 years ago. It's great in comparison. So I get not having internet, or having crappy or expensive service. When I lived in the city, I didn't have these issues and didn't give it a second thought.

I have just casted my vote. Dvds are still the big chunk of cathe's sales. Not streaming!

Actually, with all the option responses, streaming accounts for over half of the responses. At least so far.

Her DVDs are always high quality and worth purchasing.
I can understand someone living overseas with the cost of shipping having to choose to go the download/streaming route though

Wonder if it might be split in customer base that use her forum but not a split in her actual customer base?

Yeah, polls on the forum are definitely a limited selection of Cathletes. Cathe/SNM would obviously have the real data.

Actually, shipping is usually free worldwide if the series is >$50, otherwise you can usually get free shipping if you purchase another DVD to bring the total to >$50. Even better, with the presale deal offered, the extra DVD would ship immediately for free and then the series would ship for free when it was released. What made me switch from DVDs to downloads was because the last series I purchased on DVD took over a month to get to me because of Covid and shipping delays, normally it would take 6-10 days. Then once I tried OnDemand I never bothered with DVDs again. No more worries about shipping delays. Also, my DVD shelf is full.

I'm DVD's with some purchased live downloads. I have gotten some downloads with DVD sales like the Boss bands and loops and STS 2. But I always reach for the DVD's. I like the live downloads I have purchases - sometimes I do more of them instead of the DVD's.

If no more DVD's, I am happy with what I have.
