Alright guys, I have been reading a lot about satellite imagery and I think I may subscribe to a service for it, the problem is I dont know which one is best.  There are some public ones which I am told can take you in up to 6 meters above ground and I am having a hard time finding one.  Anyone know of a good provider?

you have serious problems if you subscribe to a vendor to do the same thing as stepping outside or looking out your frigging window. think about it man, is it really that important...does it zoom in on THAT MANY nude beaches...?

waste of money if you ask me

Not really.  You input the latitude and logitude of the thing you want to see and zoom in.
