Story: Hotmail cuts back free export tool
Posted by: Samir Patel (Monday 27 September 2004, 8:04 PM)
If people who are paying for Hotmail can use WebDAV, then it can't be that big a security risk can it?
Surely it's a revenue risk - people who have free Hotmail & use WebDAV don't contribute anything to MS's coffers because they don't see any adverts on the Hotmail site.
What MS are doing is letting people who pay for Hotmail use the service without ads, but people who don't pay, have to see the ads.
That's my opinion anyway
