What's wrong with these "the future is digital" guys? When the editorial
staff of a SW magazine advocates all things digital with advice like
listening to SW stations over the web makes it apparent that my dollars
should buy someone else's magazine that actually follows the hobby.


In the Jan 09 issue I was greeted with we are going to "greatly increase
our digital content" so I guess I'll have to go someplace else for real
SW news instead of this digital is wonderful BS. If I want to read about
computers there are several I can think of that do a much better job
then the amateurs that write in MT.


There is no excuse for being a cheerleader for DRM either. We all know
DRM sucks. Why anyone would want old digital technology to replace old
analog technology and think it progress needs to take another look at it.


Even HAM's don't want DRM polluting bands they use but the dunderheads
at MT think DRM is the greatest thing since sliced bread.


Pathetic.


Hey its a digital world, live it or live with it! In fact you are
probably earning and spending "virtual money". Wall street is making
simulated trades in your IRA account right now! Some folks are even
trading in "virtual *gold", spending and pretending that they have a
fortune!


Just don't send me an eQSL Card!


If they don't want to support the hobby that is their choice but don't
pretend to do it. I've bought my last issue of MT. Screw those guys.
They can learn to live without my money.

I agree Telamon, actually the last year or two I bought M.T. was
basically so I could keep my streak going of having complete years.
With my magazines I will tag the best reads (articles) with post a
notes. I found that last year and half of M.T. I bought that I would
only have one - no more than two articles if that posted for reference
in the entire magazine. Needless to say my streak ended.
