There has been a change in the Buzztouch business model. There is a bit of a discussion on it, but the bottom line is that you're still good. Before there were 'levels' of membership, one of them being free, and the others on a 'tiered' pricing structure. That has been changed... The 'Artist previously known as a Buzztouch Free Member' is now a 'Buzztouch Guest'. Membership has gone from 'tiered' membership level to a single (lower priced) membership structure. Your apps haven't gone anywhere; don't turn off your self hosted server either, it still works! If your login doesn't work, you may want to contact a BT Admin to assist you, but your hard work is still churning. Cheers! -- Smug Comments Hi Sonny! You're still grandfathered in.

You're still appreciated, you're still able to do everything you did before. I verified that you still have a valid API key (two actually). I verified that you can still make up to 50 apps. You deserve these grandfathered in benefits and we're happy to provide them :-) d. Comments @sonny1277: Yup...@Smug's right, nothing's changed as it related to your account.

woronczak I hate code! Posts: 9 Reg: Feb 29, 2012 Melbourne, Aust... 90	02/26/13 07:25 PM (11 years ago) Hi there. I am in the same situation as sonny1277, however am having some other issues. I have had a self hosted server (and hence API) for a few years. I updated the server to 2.1.8 and it wouldn't let me download the source code for my apps (says is invalid JSON, but on testing is fine). I checked the API settings and on the self hosted section of buzztouch.com and it states that I have no self hosted servers set up (and I can't get my API key) Comments Hi there.

Still on buzztouch.com, it shows that I have no self hosted servers when I obviously do...
