But I got into other areas of the business and eventually my submitting mostly dropped by the wayside. Only so many hours in the day and I tent to prioritize where my time is spent.
Recently I added up the partner account fees of several of the tgp's that were on my old submit list from back then and it was close to $1000 bucks a month just for the privilege of submitting to them.
Times have sure changed.

Yes I exactly agree with this, there is also a good thing about those paid submit passes; it weeds out a lot of clueless newbies. And most submit passes are not that expensive, depending on the size of the TGP.
Most passes are about $ 25 - $ 50 a month, those TGP's are listing me every day and sending hundreds of thousands of visitors.
