I've had this same thing happen.
Not only do I have countless files gone, if you let the subscription lapse... You don't get your music back and it wasn't there when I renewed.
Also, the cellular providers have to love how much of my own music I'm downloading over their costly data services.
What a waste of time by w3fools. Why would you put the time and energy into tearing down another site? If it is the quality of the content, then spend that time creating quality content for another site.
You don't see facebook making a site showing why myspace sucks. You don't see google or bing making a site showing how yahoo sucks. Create the quality content and let your site speak for itself.
With tutorial sites like tryruby and railsforzombies (and HN just had a javascript one also), there is definitely a higher standard of tutorial that one could aim for. Just do it or shut up already.
