I (and likely many others) also would be glad to know of a WWW space provider
that allows Simplenet-type storage capacity and is in accessible for payment.
I have never had a credit card and I live in England.

Likely there are far more people than merely a few UFO fans to suffer nuisance
because Simplenet's unlimited WWW space allowance seems to have gone down the
flushatory and passed into the realm of things that were. Perhaps if enough
people lean on Yahoo hard enough, Yahoo will continue Simplenet's service as
it was.
