I don't pay for demos. I pay for the fast bandwith they provide to download those demos.
As for betas, the other option is what? A random draw from a list of everyone who's requested access?
So, they have 1,000* spots for first wave and 1* million people request access. Don't like my chances there. Would much rather pay the small amount I do for near guaranteed beta access to the games I'd like to play.

You may use a signature (commonly used in email messages) in your posts. You can specify in your profile a signature to use at the bottom of your posts. When you post, there is an option to use your signature. A signature may contain one or more images but they must fit within a box with maximum dimensions of 400 x 75 pixels (width x height) and with a maximum (combined) file size of 20k. Images containing mostly very large words or animated .gifs will not be permitted. You may also add 1 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text directly above or underneath the image with no spaces inbetween image and text. If no images are used then up to 4 consecutive lines of normal or smaller text is permitted. Do not pad out your text lines with blanks lines. A line of text is defined as having a maximum length of 400 pixels. If you want to turn the signature off in the future, you can come back and edit your post. If you have specified a signature in your profile, the box will be automatically ticked for you.
What exactly are founder members? Sorry to be ignorant but I have no clue. I am a paid up member of FP if that is what it means for the fast downloads.
Just tried it with 4xAA and it made no performance hit. Looks a lot better without the jaggies on the buildings.
AA also gave me no performance hit still getting around 30fps average
