We had a similar experience with Hollywood Reporter over the holidays.
They were going to send a couple of the issues surrounding the holidays
to my mailbox. I think they were testing the online waters, gave them
feedback as to why it wouldn't work for us. Not sure they cared.

beginning in Feb. 2009, will be online only. That's fine, but here is my
question. They are going to a distribution model that consists of having
a file delivered to the subscriber's e-mail.
