That would have been lovely :O) It would have been good just to have a few free searches before tripping the paywall, just to see if you like the product. And if there were a small number of free views per month it would have greatly helped us when using material as a source because it would mean Wikipedia readers could at least see whether, if and when the archive was used as a source, it had been cited correctly. Fees are: Price: £79.95 GBP Valid For: 365 days Credits: Unlimited (subject to a fair usage policy) Price: £29.95 GBP Valid For: 30 days Credits: 3000 (equivalent to 5p a page) Price: £6.95 GBP Valid For: 2 days Credits: 500 (7p per page) I'm not sure how they're calculating the "per page" figure. 500 * 7p comes out as £35 for me, though maths is definitely not my strong point. I'm guessing I'm misunderstanding what they mean by a "credit". The pricing also seems rather strange. The relative cheapness of the year subscription compared to the monthly seems odd: ie, one year is equal to 2.6 months.
