I've had a MobileMe account since day one. I like the fact that it gives me an email address that will not change, even if I change service providers every six months. It gives me off-site storage for critical files. It gives me a website/blog and photo archive. And yes, I know those things are available elsewhere for free (as this was in the beginning), but I'm a firm believer that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Somewhere, sometime, the free services tend to migrate to paid services or else you get stuck with ads and other nuisance things, so I don't object to paying for my MobileMe account. Saying that, I will admit that I don't pay full price for it by leaving it on automatic renewal. There are always discounted packages available at place like Amazon and Small Dog. And don't be fooled by 'this year's' vs 'last year's' packaging. It's all the same, and all you need is the serial number. Amazon is currently showing 'last year's' for $48 — half price.
