Great they saved it, massive caveat is now its all just torrent links and so download speed is not remotely comparable to how it was before, I could download at my max line speed most of the time before. I'd rather they have made it a monthly fee to access it (for the hosting costs) and get that ease of access back. I would pay money if I knew it would let me download large roms in seconds like before.
Theres sites where you can pay a flat cost for a certain amount of download allowance, for one of them I pay 10 euros and get 10TB of download that lasts indefinitely but they take 0.01 cents a day if you download nothing.
As it stands now the download speed is too slow, I would lose interest in dipping back into an old game for the afternoon if it takes 8 hours to download, or I'd go and source the rom elsewhere that could provide higher download speeds. I understand why they've chosen to do it like this but thats just the reality of how I play emulated games, since theres the configuration time after that download too.
