Print or Digital?

 It's Election Day in the United States, and it's been going on for so long, and has been talked about so much, that we are all exhausted.

But today, I am asking for your vote on - Print or Digital?

Yesterday, I got an issue of a magazine my spouse and I happen to like - Birds and Blooms Extra. We love it especially to read at our leisure.  It's heavy with photograph. We had just extended our subscription for two years because their price was going to go up.  No problem there.

But there was this on top of the cover:

IMPORTANT MESSAGE. "Birds and Blooms EXTRA is going digital. We are pivoting the format of Birds and Bloms EXTRA magazine from print arriving in-home to digital arriving in your inbox as of the upcoming February 2025 issue...but rest assured the digital issue will contain all the same content you have come to love!" (they will also extend our subscription by one issue.)

Oh no.

The last thing we want is still another digital read.

They did offer a phone number for questions or to cancel and receive a refund.

We are seriously thinking of cancelling.

So, my voting question to you, my readers, is this?

Would you accept the digital subscription (no idea this would happen when we extended our subscription for two years recently)?  Or would you vote to cancel?

It won't influence my decision.  I'm just curious.

Print or digital?
