I didn't mean to open any of the proverbial cans of worms here, nor do I
wish to get into a debate as to what constitutes expensive, "cheap," good
value, etc. The point I thought I raised, and now DO raise, is that I am
very much put-off by Ancestry.com's approach here. Enter the arena as a
free site, tell folk you'll stay that way, invite them to submit their
family information and their databases to share with like-minded folk and
then start to charge for it. You are absolutely right, of course, "you
don't need to use or pay if you don't want." And that IS the point.
Sorry to have ruffled any feathers...

Another 2 cents worth. It would cost a lot more to travel to just ONE place
where the original record would be available IF you could find it. We all
have more than one we need so it is realllly
cheap from that basis besides being much more convenient. Of course you
don't need to use or pay if you don't want.
