Pay site

Pay sites are fan sites that charge subscription fees or donation fees for access to custom content. Many pay sites have both paid-access only and freely available custom content. There is currently controversy over whether it is right to charge for custom content or fair to recoup costs of bandwidth. Some pay sites offer adult content, and require paid access as a means of limiting their content to adults only. Most pay sites have requested that their content not be posted on TheSims2.com exchange. Many people upload it anyway though.
