Yes, it's true. That information have already posted on the ETS website. On the other hand they added new fiture: Beginning July 2003, a CD-ROM containing POWERPREP® Software: Preparation for the Computer-based TOEFL Test will be automatically mailed to individuals upon registering to take the computer-based TOEFL test.
As part of the continuing expansion of our online services, POWERPREP Software will also be downloadable from http://www.toefl.org at no charge beginning in July. In addition, the TOEFL Sampler, containing 67 computer-based TOEFL test questions and tutorials, will be available for downloading at no charge.
So, as you can see, ETS just want to sell their TOEFL preparation software to everyone who will take the test. That is a main idea of chaging the fee.
