Most of Good Continuing Education Courses are Paid for Members

I have noticed that all the good Skill Builder courses are paid now for members e.g. Introduction to NIST Cybersecurity Framework was free for members earlier now an ISC2 member has to pay over 100 USD to go through this course. What changed ? I see a pattern that all good ISC2 are becoming paid for members .

We cannot pay 100 USD every time for each course, we pay AMF assuming that these courses will be covered under the AMF and it will help us in developing our knowledge as well as cover our CPE requirements. 

Can someone in the ISC2 explain what lead to this change ?

Yeah, I noticed that as well. I live in South Africa and the prices are nuts if you convert ZAR to USD. I always coped with the AMF by justifying it for myself with the value of the courses that I get. 

I understand that it costs money to create and maintain these courses, but didn't ISC2 claim that we have record high membership numbers these days? Surely we can figure something out. Perhaps rotate the courses, so that there is a free one each month. Like Unreal store or something. 

We have a global cost of living crises, I legit cannot afford to pay 100+ USD for courses. At least try regional pricing if we MUST pay. 100 USD is a lot in my country.
