Not enough value.

It gets ripped on a lot but EA Access is really a good deal imo.

Paying for game demos is a bad precedent for the video game industry. Just as dlc, microtransactions, always online DRM, restrictions on who you let play the games you bought and paid for, and paid reviews are bad precidents. Imagine going to a car dealership and being told that in order to test drive the vehicle you were interested in buying that you had to pay them a monthly fee, I suspect you'd tell them to go F themselves and go to the car dealership across the street.

Not the same thing. A good analogy would be paying a yearly fee to drive 14 cars whenever you want and when a new car is coming out you get to test drive it for 5 days. And a new car is added to your collection every few months

All I'm paying for is demos? That's all? You have no idea what you are talking about.

how is this different from what PSN and XBL provide with IGC & XGold, Beta's and flash sales?

It costs less and the games are always in the vault no matter when you join.
