....... but I liked the former one better.

My local one of choice has also gone to more videos, and so it's not easy to find a print version.

But I suspect that more people are now more interested in watching the videos.

Flip-4-mac from Microsoft for your new computer? It's a plugin for macs that make watching Windows Media based streaming video much easier.

I do agree with you about the video. I can skim across 3 articles in the time it takes for one video to load. I scan a lot of Google news because of the extra content they give with the tag-line from the article.

No, I haven't, Grim.

So far, I've only come upon 2 places that wouldn't play for me. All of the sites I frequent give me no problems.

At this point in time I'm into learning how to use iDisk. So far. it's been the one that hasn't "sunk in".

I haven't tried Google News, but I will.

My local paper now has gone to subscription (so far, free) if we want more than a few lines.

The final product is better than the beta I saw

That was terrible; I sent some feedback and I guess a lot of other people had the same criticisms because they did fix some things. I still prefer the old version but I may just be becoming more resistant to change in my middle age. Happy

I prefer to read the news online than watch videos. If I want to watch the news, I'll turn on the TV.
