Update: 17 Feb: PAN asked Corbis for pricing details on the subscription packages – here is their reply: ‘To answer your question from yesterday, Corbis’ multi-tiered subscription offering is designed to allow customers to get the right content package at the right price, satisfying their content needs while meeting their budget requirements; however the company does not disclose specific pricing for its entertainment packages. Customers can identify the level of monthly content consumption and decide how long they want to subscribe in order to receive the best price according to their needs.
The breadth of the subscription packages offers tangible benefits to customers as they include everything from red-carpet coverage to candid photography to high end portraits and the archive Corbis is known for. Additionally, Splash Candid exclusive pictures will continue to be available only through Splash.’
