I've had a .mac account for about 7 or so years? The renewal always sneaks up on me and then I just go with it. However, I do believe that it is no longer worth it to me. I don't use iweb, the online storage, and have found the .mac mail spam filters to be sorely lacking, which is a primary reason for me to migrate over to (free) gmail.

I now have bootcamp installed and still use my mac email address. It's expenisve, in the UK it's £70 a year, the email service is good but I don't use the extra features like web hosting etc. I bought a dotmac account when I first got my mac.

"it’s worth it more at $60 than when it was over $100.00."? I'm still pay $99 and Apples web site says it's $99. What do you mean by. “it’s worth it more at $60 than when it was over $100.00.”?

I own a .mac a/c and i have 2 macs. I like .mac. I will pay for it again. The web gallery here in europe is very (painfully) slow, but apple promise they are looking into this problem. If the web gallery is still slow in a few years time i may give up paying for .mac. I hear the web gallery in the usa is fast. .mac should be free. I own a .mac a/c and i have 2 macs. I like .mac.

However, having two macs, it is worth it to me just for the syncing features. It is nice to just open my laptop after not having used it for a month and my bookmarks and passwords and everything be updated. If you only have one mac I don’t think it is worth it.
