From my understanding, there is still free access to trees but there
is
another pay option coming available.

Dear List,
<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<Since I've never
submitted a family tree to
Ancestry.com or
MyFamily.com, I can't tell you a thing about this but thought
some of you
might need a heads up.
What I received as an fyi appears below. I have no further information.
Apologies in advance if you receive this more than once.
Peggy
============================================
If you submitted a family tree to
Ancestry.com (or
MyFamily.com) for free viewing by researchers, that's all about to
change.
Later this month Ancestry plans to begin charging researchers to
view
your
trees.
If you don't want that, you'll have to remove your tree.
Go to:
http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/trees/owt/
Click on "What's a Preview"
Scroll down to #3: Have you already submitted a family tree?
Click on "view our checklist"
A few lines down you will see:
"If for any reason you do not want your tree to be part of the new
OneWorldTree service, you must delete it from the Ancestry World Tree
database by tentatively May 21, 2004."
There are instructions for removing your tree:
