Yahoo Discontinues BYOA Package Yahoo Plus

(via TechDirt) SO the BYOA packages have proved to be a bummer, generally speaking: Yahoo is notifying Yahoo Plus subscribers that their subscription bundle of fee-based premium content and services will be discontinued in April.

Yahoo Plus includes a variety of premium security, e-mail, entertainment and storage software and services. Launched in December 2003, it doesn’t include Internet access, as it is aimed at users who already have a broadband connection.

A company spokesperson said in the story: “The decision to close Plus allows us to focus on continuing to improve the services our users most want and use, such as our co-branded Internet access services with AT&T and Verizon.” Wonder how long these will last…
