Advertising is enough to deal with. And Live Maps - I just can't go a day without it being free. I don’t think I could deal with my Hotmail and Live Mesh being charged.

I subscribe to about 200 feeds. I could never take in that much useless information any other way. I would definitely buy Google Reader. I subscribe to about 200 feeds.

I don't like to pay for anything online. Well, I actually spent my first $10 ever on iTunes a couple weeks ago because I couldn't find this great artist (Walter Ferguson) on bit torrent. Anyways. I wouldn't pay for any for the services mentionned by Ryan Spoon, maybe except for Google Analytics. I may alos consider thinking about maybe contemplating paying for wordpress. I am one of those who think that everything on the Internet (also the Internet service itself) should be free. This goddamn ads make enough money to pay for our free porn, doesn't it?
