Buy this for the pictures, and go in with your eyes open about the meter. The advertised annual price is close to meaningless for anyone generating media daily. The bigger mark against it on a UK rubric is that you cannot tell from the site who holds your data, which costs it heavily on our second-heaviest criterion.

The unlimited-chat subscription is a better structure than most metered rivals, because the thing you do most is not metered. Media still is, and DreamCoin pricing is where the budget goes. Worth a look if you talk more than you generate; avoid the annual plan until you know which you are.
