Since 2006 we have been on the market in an unchanged form, that is, as ad financed/free file hosting. However, you have been visiting in less and less over the years, as the arguably very simple formula of the services we offer is slowly running out of steam

Over the past year, electricity prices have gone up 2.5 times, which, with a large number of servers, gives a significant increase in costs that we have no way to balance. There are still a bunch of smaller reasons [for closing down], but we could write a book on this, and probably no one would want to read it.

Sounds like visits are down and costs are way, way up.




It's no surprise that less and less people are accessing them in the last few years.

They have apparently blocked access in Europe.

Reports show that it is blocked at least in the UK, Germany and Spain.
