Full Version: Is it time for all-digital publications?

Is the electronic version downloadable or is it strictly "read online"?

If downloadable as a single file to read at our convenience without loging on, it makes it easy to keep the issues on a cd/dvd for future reference.

If only "read online", the print version would be preferred for me.

I, like Chuck and others had a subscription to the hard copy before it went to the email /pdf product. Personally I much prefer the magazine in the old format. I tend to see the e-mail while working and always plan on going back to read it later - never happens. I enjoy reading the other 4 or 5 hard copy magazines I get and will probably drop this all digital publication at some point. I really hate to drop it because I enjoyed reading it but in this format it does not work well with my current work/leisure style.

I have spoken to Mike as well and suggested he continue to publish both.


Did Mike have a response to that suggestion?

He said, "Fella, get back on your island, I'll handle it!"

What a great way to keep customers. Definitely not.

Essentially David T is right. Mike is a great guy, but he very politically told me that they were going digital and they would be sorry to lose me.

For the remainder of my subscription I will try to make a concerted effort to embrace it and see how it goes. Recognition pro had always been one of my favorites.

Hi UncleSteve,

Yes it is the advantage I see in it too.
