It's doubly effective because with 'Priority Pass' you are able to use 'The Lounge' even if flying on another airline. With Lounge membership, to gain entry, you must be flying DJ.

Peace and quiet is good but the Canberra 'lounge' was positively lonely on Monday evening. When Mrs P and I arrived at 16:15 there were about a dozen guests. When we left just over an hour later there were only 3 people in there. The guests were outnumbered by staff.
We were flying QF so I guess we could have been out of whack with the DJ schedules but even so, I was surprised that the place was virtually empty.
It's no surprise that they've reduced the joining fee.

I think they should make it a per-ticket addon. When you get to the purchase ticket screen, add say $30 as an option and then you can use the lounge before and after the flight by showing your boarding pass.

Velocity members can already purchase "Lounge" entry 'passes' on-line; there are 'stored' against you velocity number and you simply present your card on entry.
Other than that, if you have a DJ flight you can purchase entry at the Lounge Reception for $35.
