I don't understand what you are saying.

It is neither hard nor expensive to pay $3.95 (that is what, 2.78 Euros at
today's rate?) to get the pdf version. That is what you have been getting all
along. He had to start charging something for the magazine and it is a fair
price for an online publication.

As for a print version, well sure it is expensive but specialty magazines are
always expensive. I work in a library and we have lots of specialty magazines
that cost far more than Brick Journal.

(...) The PDF is not expensive, it is expensive to get the printed issue (ok specialty magazines are expensive, I know) but the worst thing is that Europeans AFOL cannot buy at all the printed BJ because it is sold only within US. Luca (17 years ago, 17-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish.brickjournal)
