I'm all in favor of "MORE". .... as long as not undermining the subscriber support needed to keep the magazine going. Having the previously printed articles available on-line would be an asset. The photo spreads, however, are problematical. I very much enjoy them in print form. On-line viewing wears on the eyes. The "secure" pdf format used by Rinko is a hassle to store and re-access, especially without an index to use to identify which numbered issue is the one with the information I'd like to locate. As a result, I'm storing all the electronic Rinkos, but do not re-access anymore. The more that are stored, the harder it is to use. If the articles are delivered in that format, I might well subscribe for a year to check it out, but I'd not likely re-new unless there were a goodly number of articles not previously published.

I am not through the latest K-B issue, in part because I keep making the "mistake" of looking at the show photos and suddenly it is time to do something and I've still not finished the tosai selection article ... such concentrated information to parse.
