    I think not allowing a pdf download will hurt sells. I enjoy reading them on my tablet. The printed editions are twice the price. If I'm not mistaken the pdf has your email at the top. So why not ban the email that uploads the magazine to the web. I mean even the printed versions can be shared with others. Jm2c

    1. It's sales, not sells.

    2. Printing paper is 100x as expensive: it wastes paper, it wastes ink, takes time to produce, takes time to package, takes time to deliver, costs money to send, and takes time to get.

    All that said, it's still preferable (to me) to read a physical document. But, unless you own the printing press, it's extremely expensive to do these days.

    @ LC. Unfortunately, I have to agree with eneas. I download mine so I can read them when I have no internet access (work). I feel you about the piracy thing but what about the people who don't share?

    You're right about sales and sells jack I humbily aplogize for my spelling mistake and hope you can see past my error. I agree that printing a magazine and shipping it cost money. I was responding to the comment about simply buying the magazine. The point I was making was with the printed magazine costing twice as much and then sitting around for the wrong people to see it is understandable for people to not care for it. Again jm2c
