I'm not trying to complain because I'm happy that you're making premium more valuable BUT there's a couple things that make me feel like this will be less popular than it could be. First of all, I visited a few of these premium sandboxes and I was immediately discouraged from using them because they had a return time of 4 hours. Any free member can find a sandbox with a longer return time (or for that matter a Linden Owned or abandoned land with NO return time). As a creator I can tell you that we rarely create a complete item in 4 hours (especially when dealing with sculpt/mesh or scripts)... so for this to be usable (to me) I would need a return time of at least 8 hours and preferrably 16 hours. Second, it is my opinion that Linden intrudes in the merchant arena and offers unfair advantages to certain merchants over others. Why? Because things like 'free prim items' act as an advertising mechanism that give an advantage to 'chosen' merchants above everyone else. Therefore, in my belief Linden Lab should either a) allow all merchants to have the same opportunity as anyone else to have their items 'given for free' on a mass distribution such as these 'free sofa's are, or b) refrain from playing favorites and giving unfair advantages that we cannot all obtain equally! Other than that I'm fairly pleased with the current state of SL, it's not perfect but it's getting better all the time and thanks for continuing to improve on the technology
