I'm quite sure than no-one shelled out a hundred bucks *just* to get a sneak preview of a game. We stumped up the cash in order to ensure that the game actually got published. There may be a few that would be annoyed if their "privilege" were made open to all, but they're certainly in the minority, and to them, I'd say "get a life".
