lud,

It sucks, sure. But it’s been free for a really long time, and it costs money to run a service.

You can’t really expect that a service will serve an increasing amount of people free stuff forever.

At least making people visit the site will encourage them to upload and help keep the service up.

Btw, it’s not expensive and if you think it is. Just use some other service.
