No Frills Is Best

Personally I wish all ISPs or other connectivity providers would stop embedding these kinds of "value added" services. Most of the time they just get in the way of my trying to use the primary service in a manner of my choosing.

Besides, things like social networking, email, photo and video sharing can all be done for free now. There's no need for a connectivity provider to bundle pay versions of these services.

Well pnh,

Unless they want to CUT THEIR PRICES in conjunction with axing these services, then I see a problem. Why should I pay the same, and get far less for my money? Business can be taken elsewhere =).

Of course the fact that you paid the same and got more when they first introduced Flickr Pro for free is long forgotten. So in fact, AT&T is simply bringing their DSL service back to where it was.

that would be a valid point, but in fact they had taken away yahoo photos, because yahoo was changing from that to flickr, so nothing was added new for free, just replaced 1 for 1.

Which is basically them removing a service they gave to all when they signed up. Now their 1:1 swap is 1 subtracting 1 and back to a loss. So yes, now they can drop the price of their service, since we will get less for our buck or business can go elsewhere.
