Looks like I posted to a bottom of the page item by Michael regarding "the Vault" before realizing there was another full page of replies.

I don't think it's so much a 'member's only feel'. What it is, is a brilliant marketing scheme designed to make people buy product now instead of later. Money in hand is almost always preferable on paper to money trickling in over time. You do it again every generation shift while rotating your product line through different vault cycles to keep the income steady and you probably have one of the best marketing schemes to come along in a long time.

Certainly, the ethics are questionable.
