No there are so many tutes and free so why pay for more that you can get time for?
Best one I like is www.zeeltv.com and click on the quilters tv.
And of course all the Mousorie Quilt Company on you tube.

I pay for QNN because it has a long arm quilting program. It was $25 for a whole year unlimited wataching. There were many other programs. If you do find one with a subject or person that you prefer to learn.

I don't pay for shows. I find all the free stuff and also download any free quilting podcasts and videos on to my iPod. I don't have an iPhone but guess you could do them as well on it. I watch the videos over and over. We took a bus trip recently and I listened to the podcasts and watched the videos when it got dark and I wasn't sleepy whiled we traveled. With the earphones, it didn't bother any one. Will be flying to San Antonio Aug. 3rd for my DGS Air Force graduation and will be using the iPod then...

I joined Quilters Club of America for a year & did not renew the the second year. The third year I renewed because I missed the opportunity to watch full videos at my liesure. They have a lot of variety, but then the fourth year I did not renew because I did not find enough time to sit and enjoy the benefit.
This year I purchased a membership to The Quilt Show, and I enjoy that site too. I probably will renew to this one again next year, depending on the cost. Both sites offer a lot but you have to make time to watch the videos and participate on the blogs if you want to feel like you are part of the community.
Me I just enjoy having the luxury of watching some well know instructors at my convience.

I also like to watch Eleanor Burns' website with her "shows" on the internet. I also like to watch the Create channel, which offers quilt shows by Fons & Porter and Georgia Bonesteeel. I also like Martha's Sewing Room that mainly focuses on sewing, but will have quilts on too. I like her sewing tips on dressmaking skills and tips that I may use to make clothes for my granddaughter. It's sometimes hard to get channels that offer quilt shows, so maybe we need to write our Congressman lol and tell them what we want. Just kidding, it would never work, they don't listen to what we say anyway.

I have subscribed to The Quilt Show for several years now. I do enjoy it. I get to watch them when I want to,not when they want to show them. I also get to watch a wide varity of different world wide quilt teachers, for very little money.
Unfortunately, I have watched many shows and then needed that persons book.
What can I say, I'm a book junkie. :-)
