In January I received an email from Christopher Macdonald saying that the current Anime News Network subscription system was ending, but that existing subscriptions would be extended for 6 months. He said at the time that ANN was hoping to have a new subscription system in place at the end of those 6 months. It seems that the extra 6 months on my subscription have now run out. However, when I went to resubscribe, it didn't look like new subscription options were available. I was presented with the same options as before, and trying to subscribe resulted in an error message. I'd still like to be able to turn off ads and customize the way the site looks. Is there a way to subscribe currently, or is that not available right now?

Hey Calathan, sorry about the error message. Normally you would have been able to resubscribe when your subscription expired 1 week ago, but I didn't test enough and that error threw a wrench in the plans.

I've extended your subscription a little so you can renew now.

Thank you for extending my subscription. I noticed on the subscription page that I could re-check the option to renew my subscription every year, but I didn't seem to be able to immediately purchase another year on my subscription. There was a link to change subscription plans, but all the options were listed as unavailable except the one I have now, and clicking that one didn't seem to be purchasing another year, but just confirming that I wanted to use my existing subscription. If I check the option to renew every year, will that work and renew my subscription when it runs out again?

Yes.
It's not possible to pre-purchase several years.
