Very true and that is one reason I regret purchasing our 4-day tickets now, but we got them so we will use them.But we're already paying for them with our park tix.

As has been said elsewhere, you don’t “have” to pay for anything. Both Genie+ and the Individual Attractions are so you have to pay for a shortened wait, no more, no less. Could that change with time? Who knows? But I think it muddies people understanding of the new system when it’s referred to as “pay to ride”, when it’s not. Want to wait on the standby line for 20, 50, 160 minutes? Knock yourself out. Want a shorter wait? Here’s Genie+ and the Individual Attraction offerings. Good or bad, fair or unfair are secondary debates, the system as it is pretty straightforward.
Yes. Good point. And they suck.Except for the Boarding Group only rides of course.
A couple blogs put out these, seem reasonable:
MK - 7 Dwarfs and Space
Epcot - Remy and TT
DHS - Rise and Slinky
AK - FOP and Safari
These rides will still have stand by lines correct? First post said “take away standby lines”. I hope not
Decent virtual queue availability for Rise was only posted recently for the first time since it opened. That's about as close to Standby is one would get. Since Genie+ virtual queues will not be available at all for Rise or Remy (the 2 announced rides to use individual purchase), not sure whether they'll open a Standby lane when rare availability occurs in the future.RoR and Remy do not. And it can be assumed GoG and Tron will not either. The others currently do, yes.
I thought Rise doesn't have a Standby line, only BGs assigned via MDE or GS/kiosk. ???Want to wait on the standby line for 20, 50, 160 minutes? Knock yourself out. Want a shorter wait? Here’s Genie+ and the Individual Attraction offerings. ...the system as it is pretty straightforward.

I’ve seen the same floating around though FWIW Mine Train and Boarding Group rides are the only official confirmed ones ( and Radiator Springs Racers in california)A couple blogs put out these, seem reasonable:
MK - 7 Dwarfs and Space
Epcot - Remy and TT
DHS - Rise and Slinky
AK - FOP and Safari
The only ones that won’t are rise, Remy (and web slingers in california) that will be boarding group or paid ala carteThese rides will still have stand by lines correct? First post said “take away standby lines”. I hope not
You DO know that this Genie service was designed when Bob Iger was still the CEO right?
That comment is actually referring to Lightning Lane.
