I had a membership which expired a few weeks ago so points didn't do anything for me until then. I also buy the cd once a year as a backup and to say thanks to the owner. I think I had about 80000 or so left when they finished.
If you purchased anything (not with points) in the last couple of years with dbs you can reclaim points for past purchases and get the download links.
I ended up with over another 1000 points just for doing that.
No I didn't . :( I had just under 4000 points too. I got so busy with my kids and their schooling and helping that I missed them. Oh well the kids had a great excursion.
It's too bad that you lost them. That is about what I had and I used most of them.
I agree with you the older sets were much better, I had about 300 points left,
