I've decided not to renew my account by stopping my .mac subscription and saving the money. I think it is too much to pay when I have a steady email account from my isp. How many of you still use or have also quit the .mac service, besides the email, it all sucks ass IMO. It should have always stayed free as iTools.

I'm keeping mine. The storage increase was nice of them, the e-mail address is now too important, and I <3 iSync. And I totally have to be able to use the built-in features in Tiger, or else I won't be cool.
