We can't afford to subscribe on a monthly basis - we're most interested in prices for packages of 4-7 webinars and/or a per webinar price.We just need the basics, though need the ability to work between a PowerPoint presentation and a live website as this is critical to demonstrating our website and web tools - we imbed links in our Powerpoint and go back/forth between the slides and the Internet.Record and Playback would be nice, but are not critical.Thank you."
