According to TWIT, it's Yahoo! themselves who are reportedly unhappy. This isn't my pet theory for you to agree or disagree with. Doubtless there are some less obvious synergies and thanks for pointing them out. But allegedly, they don't outweigh the cost of buying and running it. Russell gparker – maybe I wasn’t clear.

First of all it's quite easy to see how many pro accounts are there given the fact that basic accounts allow you to upload no more than 200 photos and to have no more than 2 sets, and in my experience I've always ecountered pro accounts. I too have a pro account as I decided to store all my photos on flickr. Then i think Yahoo's acquisition was worth beacause acquired all of flickr users as they have to migrate their flickr account to a yahoo one. Now more and more users have a yahoo account and that makes easier for them to try yahoo's features. Definetely I don’t agree.

If 10% of the users are pro thats ¬£25m revenues p.a. - more than enough to pay for the bandwidth? I read somewhere that Flickr was profitable before Yahoo acquired it…
