Oh what a shame, I was planning to sign up for ACM next week. Unfortunately, that was a predictable move from O’Reilly. I bet most of the folks signing up for ACM were actually after O’Reilly’s contents.

I think the only cheaper alternative is during Black Friday period where they give a 100 usd discount.

Correct on Black Friday being the best and perhaps only major discount for O'Reilly Learning. Historically he Black Friday price is 50% off, at $199 down from the regular price of $399 [1]. It looks like they've raised the normal price to $499 now, so I would expect $249 on Black Friday this year.

Note: There is a significant typo in the article below, in that the renewal price in subsequent years does stay at the discounted rate. I've been subscribing since it was called Safari Books and still on the discounted rate.
