Exciting news for who? Only the site owner is excited that a free resource now requires a subscription

"Yay! Now I have to pay another subscription! I'm so excited! Let's celebrate with them!" - nobody

You just have to move to the new API which is still free, the old one is temporarily still available by paying

Yeah he said the new one is REST.... Does that mean the current one is SOAP or something? Yikes

Looks like xmlrpc. The website for this spec no longer exists, so I definitely see a motivation to stop using it, lol.

haha
