this is a collapsed drum bearing, one of the most costly of the repairs apart from the timer and motor, not normally a job for the diy man unless has an engineering background, sorry, the cost of repair depends on the age and replacement cost of a machine, a bit like a car, would you buy an engine for a 20 year old car, if you have a machine thats expensive then the repair could be worth it? stop running it you will cause more damage both to the clothes and the machine sorry (ps i am a retired appliance engineer of 20 years service)

You can try and fix it your self, it sounds like to me the main drum bearing at the back of the drum has gone bad, it all depends if the parts are available and you are up to tearing the unit down to fix it.
Usually this is an out-of-balance condition caused by too much weight on one side of the tub, move the clothes around and try again.
