attempted to renew my existing subscription (early) which expires at end of August. I have a direct, but have a plus dvd media renewal card. all i wanted to do was renew for an additional year, but there isn't any box to check for that. How do they know I am renewing, and not upgrading my existing subscription? there should be a box to check to indicate if you are renewing or upgrading. Now my info shows i have a DVD edition, but the expiration date is still Aug 08. It should be extended to Aug 09. it would be nice to have a checkbox indicating if this is a renewal or an upgrade, so I wouldn't have to call support on monday to straighten it out. thanks.
now the activation site expired my current subscription (effecitive 5/3/08) and gave me a new subscription expires 5/4/09. the current subscription should not have expired until Aug 08, so now I lost four months??

Warning to everyone... don't upgrade a subscription until your current subscription expires. I lost 4 months on my direct subscription and was told, your out of luck, nothing we can do because it is an upgrade!!!
