Virtual Railfan Question

[JamesBrox]

Looking into getting a subscription of VR. Is it worth it? Opinions are appreciated...thanks

I just enjoy what they stream to Youtube, but if you really enjoy it what they offer in a subscription basis does seem really nice.

Look at the list of cameras that are restricted to subscribers only. If they interest you then a subscription might be worth it. The free ones (or better labeled as "Sponsored") available on YouTube are great for me so I have not paid for a subscription. That could change later.

There are two types of subscriptions - the VRF Website (which gives you access to all 83 of the cams) plus extended DVR access to go back and watch activity in the past, and the YouTube subscription, which allows access to some of the cams on YT that are not in the 'Free' status. When you think about it, providing and supporting more than 80 cameras to a user base isn't inexpensive (a typical camera installation is $5K plus recurring ISP fees for a commercial grade connection), which is why I am a member.
