Maybe they are running out of money, and that's why the updates have slowed and then stopped.
A lot of sites that I liked, in the past, stopped updating, and then became archive sites that no longer updated, but they were still on the internet, accepting memberships, without changing their splash pages that promised daily/weekly/whatever updates. And many of them had longer-term membership offerings of multi-month or even a yearly membership. So anyone joining for a longer-term membership probably felt cheated.
So you can say this site has a trust problem, or, more likely, that it has had financial problems. In that case, if you don't think the site contents are worth a 1-month membership, then give it a pass.
Quite often, when a site has financial problems, they don't work on the site to keep it working properly. And then you can have broken links, problems with videos or photosets that you might not be able to access, etc.
It's a shame, but a lot of sites that I really liked, that had what was good content at the time, just fall on hard times, and either stumble on, or disappear.
(I'm not saying that this site was one of my former favorites. I've never been a member here, and even if it was still in good condition, I've got other sites that I like better.)
But even if this site has content that might appeal to you, you are probably better off looking for sites that are in better financial health, where you can hope for a better membership experience.
Gee, I can certainly ramble, can't I?

REPLY TO #1 - lk2fireone :
Thanks for the reply, LK2.
I think you are probably correct.
If they were more attentive in their non-member area, perhaps they might attract more new business.
They could even do that without improving their services to their membership!
