there's always some one that will come along, buy it off change it so you need a new technique to do what you did previously easily but is now more difficult to navigate

ie 1837 online/
search, find the file, save it ...as djvu..done.

findmypast/ brightsolid
now search, find the file, view it, download it as htm
instead of a djvu file.......(of which I have hundreds saved)

FTM which is now owned by ancestry......no websearch....unless you upgrade.
