There are so many advantages to having the paper in electronic format. You can zoom in to the articles, you can email the articles to yourself for further reference, the electronic version is not bulky like a hard copy, and there is no need to recycle like you needed to do as a hard copy (I used to have stacks laying around). I highly recommend the electronic version. Also the cost is more cost effective.

Duplicate articals, constant ads opening a browser while trying to read articles, articles days old in either the app or online paper, incorrect grammer and spelling, and uselesssearch functionality. Is this what passes for journalism today?

Unable to cancel my subscription, it just keeps buffering at the last option. Also, under app support, there is no email or phone number listed to call....very hard to communicate
