The terribly discouraging detail: the change will affect existing basic accounts, not just ones created under the new setup. So those of us who thought existing basic accounts were being grandfathered in when they took away the ability to create new basic accounts ... will (according to the current plan) wind up with ad-supported accounts eventually regardless.

Oh, joy. Not particularly surprised, but still vaguely disappointed.

Thanks for the pointers to other places you're using, BTW. Moving even my tiny piece of virtual fourth estate would certainly be a royal pain for me, but.... *shrug* "let's see what happens", as Gregor Vorbarra would say. Not going to be too high on my list of priorities for the time being, though.
