What are the BEST fee paying Genealogy Sites?

I live in the UK & have Ancesters in USA, Canada, NZ, Australia & a few other Countries I expect. Ancestry UK is a very good site, but Ancestry Worldwide is $350 a year, which is a little expensive, are there any other sites out there, as good but cheaper. Thanks in advance.

I have a subscription to Ancestry UK and think it is well worth the money.
I wouldn't say findmypast is rubbish, they often have the census indexed correctly where Ancestry does not. I have bought a small amount of credits for that site so I can look at the information when needed.

ItsJustMe has a spectacular aura about
I have the world deluxe membership with ancestry.com /.co.uk and it's amazing, I pay monthly and through ancestry.com, it is cheaper by about £7:00 a month doing it that way. With this package I have access to every record/document they have on their site. Well worth every penny I spend on it. Findmypast in my honest opinion is absolutely rubbish and not worth the money at all the records are incomplete, the help line isn't very helpful. I did have membership to that one, but I decided after a two week trial with ancestry etc, that was the best option.
Hope this helps.

Scotland's People is excellent if you're looking for Scottish BMD and census stuff, but overall, Ancestry is king.

happy wife has a spectacular aura about
I would always say that ancestry is by far the best site going with the largest selection of records by a long way:
http://www.ancestry.com/
http://www.ancestry.co.uk/
But if you're looking for another good fee site, this one also has a lot of good records including passenger lists and census records:
