You have full control of subscriptions and you can have unlimited subscriptions for each membership level. You can also set how often the subscriptions will collect money, anything between 1 day to 99 years.
With wp-member you can create a post or page for everyone which has a protected block of text. You can conrol what messages are presented to users who are not logged in or registered and are viewing the post or page with the protected text in it.

Wp-Member v 3.0.beta2 has been released:
User Membership Level/Permissions – When a new user registered on a site running wp-member v 2.3.1 and wordpress v 2.8.4, some user accounts were not being assigned the correct membership level. This was due to changes in the wp-login.php file which was included in wordpress v 2.8.4. This was causing wp-member to have blank database entries where the membership level should have been saved. This has now been rectified and tested.
Drop Down / Tick Box Fields – Added extra registration fields that can be added within the wp-Member Registration Custiomization section of your blog. Presently, this feature is not final and we are trialing it so that we can test and alter the end features to better suit our users requirements.
This feature should be final in the v3.0 stable version will release after further tests and user feedback.
