Issue:
MS stopped supporting MS VE. The suggested alternative (USGS NAIP) does not seem to meet my needs. It does not offer a hybrid version (with street names) and the resolution is not as good as MS VE in many cases. Also, it does not work outside the US.
So, for those of us that don't see USGS NAIP as a viable alternative, what can we do? This thread sounds promising:

However, that doesn't sound like a sure thing.
Has anyone had any pulling down highway/street data and laying it on top of satellite data? This thread on using OpenStreetMaps is a bit old, but might be worth looking into:

Anyone have any other ideas? Also, if anyone wants to link this to whatever thread they think should be the "official" thread on this topic, please do.
