BT's divorce from Yahoo meant this was always on the cards. I left BT last July after 13 years as a happy customer who had never looked anywhere else - all because I didn't use the landline for a month so they decided to charge me a £10 penalty. I'm now with a ISP that costs a pound or two less each month, gives web-space and a fantastic array of tools and 24/7 UK support. Oh, my upload speed doubled on migration and I'm on rolling monthly contracts too.

As to the Flickr issue, I knew I'd lose my pro accounts when I left BT and was already shopping around for an alternative. I settled on Smugmug which costs me about a tenner a month but is secure, allows the option for people to buy prints if they wish and also has the ability to disable "right click downloading". I'm quite happy with it all.

I can remember BT before the tie-in with Yahoo - it seems that they want to get back to core services, maybe they will come up with their own bells & whistles in a year or so?

As a quick aside, I too use Dropbox quite a lot - if you've got a Samsung phone/gadget and link it to your dropbox account you get 50GB storage free for 2 years
