Evidence suggests MobileMe will become free

It’s not a whole lot to go on, but rumors never are. Recent changes to the Account Type statuses of Apple’s MobileMe service is leading many to believe that the cloud-based syncing offering may soon become free. Instead of being labeled as an Individual subscriber accounts are now labeled with Full Member. We have been able to confirm that the changes have occurred on both single license and multiple license family-pack accounts. It’s speculative, but needless to say Apple could stand to benefit from touting the service as free. We’re sure there are a lot of Apple lovers out there who are going to hold their breath extra hard in the days leading up the WWDC keynote.

    As always, the greedy get greedier and we just keep paying. If they were to cut the price in half, it would still make them millions. I don’t have needs for the full blown service but what can you do. I complained!

    So, what happened to MobileMe becoming free? Was it a teaser by Apple? My free account expired a few months ago and I would probably renew at $49 but not at $99.
