Just a question to others sellers. If you had an option here in SS to "Opt Out" of the small web sized footage that pays a scary $3 commission ... would you?

First vote from me ....yes

I would not - every dollar may count. But then again, may be that's because I have only few footages

Won't those low commission sales be a thing of the past once the new pricing structure goes into effect?

Do we know when this is happening?

just theoretically (as I understand those are gone already) I would opt out. Glad this is not longer an issue.

I guess we'll see. My understanding is the web will then pay us about $4.50. Really not much difference and is still not something that is wanted or needed. Maybe we will be surprised and find the web and SD are the same or higher priced. Downsizing is a benefit for buyers, an added bonus and should show minimal difference if any from the full HD pricing. Other places that sell only the HD version has shown that buyers are more than willing to buy the full version and downsizing and reduced pricing was not needed.
