WoodenBoat: The Complete Collection!

[StevenBauer]

I haven't seen this mentioned here yet but I just spotted this in issue #208. The WoodenBoat Store is now selling the entire collection of WoodenBoat Magazine on a USB thumb drive for $145. It even includes the complete index. If you haven't read the older issues you've missed some great stuff. Thanks, WoodenBoat. :)

StevenI wonder if I can trade my CD's in on the new edition.

Thats cool. I wonder how they solved that copyright problem.

I just placed the order for the entire collection and I am really impatient to see what comes.

About that "copyright issue" I don't see a problem because I tried really hard to find a site from which to download the collection (as I thought there was no point on paying for something that someone might have already uploaded) but couldn't find anything. That only if someone had uploaded it because I really like this magazine and I am certainly not uploading my collection as I want this magazine to keep on as long as they can.


We all should be aware that if anyone ever uploads the collection, then it would be quite easy for the woodenboat stuff stop selling pdf issues and finance just with merchandising and ads on the paper version...that would be a real pity...as on the Pdf you can use the index, find the article you need and (if you are like me and prefer paper) print out the article you want. Yet better, you can take the whole collection with you...!!!


Hope you understand but I am NOT uploading and I am NOT sharing by e-mail.

The best for all of us...

Ha! I've already got them all in real live glossy paper!

So what if I'm a luddite!

Yep, we sort of GOT that idea, Boreas....

Don't worry, Brian, that's what the thumb-drive buyers are going to have to do next month, anyway.

Disclaimer: Nothing in the above should be understood to mean that I don't fully approve of WoodenBoat's being published electronically, whether on today's thumb drive or yesterday's CDs. I'm just glad that the copyright issues that stopped electronic publication after Issue 161 seem to have been resolved.
