    I don't think I would have signed up if it hadn't been free. But I do agree with some that the option of using the service ad-free potentially has its value.

    Would you pay for MFP if the app was no longer free? How much would you pay monthly?

    I wouldn't have started MFP if it costed me anything. Even if there was a free trial.

    Now? Maybe.. But only because I'm addicted to the site. Four months ago, forget it.
    and
    If they had an option to get rid of the ads and I could pay some modest fee (say about $20 per year), I'd probably pony up.

    No.....I came here because it was free. If I had a lot of money I wouldn't need this, I would just have a personal trainer and chef :P

    Honestly? Probably not even now, as I'm practically addicted to the site.

    And truthfully, if I'd stumbled across this site when I was just starting out and discovered it cost money? No thanks.

    That would surely suck, the one thing I love about this site is that it is free. I think it has a long way to go before it can become worth paying for.

    I think there are other free options out there. I would look for one of those before paying. Its not like this site has had a makeover in the last few years. I'm sure there are some sites that offer cooler/easier tracking than this one.....for free.

    I firmly believe that it should stay free.. I agree with some of the other comments, that especially newcomers would be less likely to use it if you had to pay for it. And if it was mandatory, members would drop left and right.

    But, if there was a paid user option, and some people could "upgrade" their account for a small fee to get some perks, I would be all for it in a heartbeat.

    Things like:
    - Less ads
    - More userpic uploads
    - Exclusive features
