And from the SHM is came away with the understanding that of those that did sign most are "first tier", meaning one from each category. That meaning that there are a number of categories and each of  the first slots are no longer available at the introductory low price in each category. That is why (to me and other posters dismay) the prices always seemed  to not being increasing. Now with most categories absent of first tier positions and with the recent ruling the prices should be going way up! I would sure not want to have to pay "third tier" prices! Second tier at any price will be a gift!! IMO
