Actually, MS **DID** indeed let passport.com expire. There was some open source (or something) programmer that paid for the domain since it kept hotmail from working. MS eventually sent him like a $500 check for his troubles, which IIRC he auctioned off on ebay for charity.

I was also using Brujah's site before until it turned a paysite. Directnic is free, why bother paying.
Still, Brujah, nice site you have. (Does that qualify for free access? )

Only $500? Did MS have the legal rights to the domain or something, and just sent him $500 to keep him happy? Or did he agree that $500 was fair.. if it was me, I'd ask for like $1 million

Expired domains are cool, but expired domains with traffic are even better!
Euro is that master of getting expired domains with traffic, but I am proud to have picked up www.ehardcoremovie.com that had about 1,300 pages listed in www.altavista.com. Now all of that SE traffic is mine All for $15 . . .
