Free access records

I can't believe that findmypast.co.uk had free access to all the records during the World Cup when they were playing. That was great! The first day didn't work out very well though. It took me about 1 1/2 hours to get in and they were only available for 3 hours! Then once I was in I tried to look at some records but the pages were slow and didn't work. The other days it worked great and I did find records/information. The free 90 minutes they offered went by very fast though. I had hoped England would last longer in the World Cup so I would get more time for free searches. :)
I also tried looking for information in the Druin collection at Ancestry.ca during their free three days of access last week. I didn't find any records though. I did find mention of some records in Quebec, but they were not free to access since they apparently were not in the Druin collection, French-Canadian and Quebec historical records.
