Moving into this century by unrestricting files is a bit of a moot point these days, over 90% of the groups I¡¯m a member of are dead, some for many years.
It¡¯s less hassle to host files yourself (not on Photobucket obviously), and as a bonus you can share that link with anyone, Yahoo files usually require membership to access them.
I¡¯m surprised these groups even exist (I remember when it was eGroups!).
Some folk are surprised even Yahoo still exists.

Yes, that's exactly the problem, they're available but they're not, and let alone when a member actually needs it.
That was a deliberate decision to avoid the problems the 7x10 group had with unmoderated access. At the time, Yahoo had file size limits,
That was then, could we possibly move into THIS century?
making it logical to avoid permanently using a finite resource for transient items.
So at present, the available but not really available finite resource is woefully underused at 3.5% . Yup, the unused part DOES seem pretty infinite at this rate.
