June - It is the same with their 1880 US Census. They let you have the search results but to actually see the images yourself, you will need to have the subscription. Frustrating, I agree. The free part is to get search results. Before, you didn't even get that (as far as I recall, but you say you were able to?). Their advertising-URL Tom sent doesn't say anything about seeing images, if you notice.
So its sort of like familysearch.org, where you get names and data online, but no images. It is still useful and helpful, if you didn't have it before. If a local library has free access to Ancestry, then you can save time by doing all the searches from home, then go to the library and actually look up the names you were able to find to see the images. This is my understanding. It isn't wonderful, but it can still be useful. [Especially in that it is easy to copy and paste into Legacy notes! ;-) Now on-topic.
