Newsweek profile

Kovid, I always enjoy reading NYTimes and Newsweek, thank you for profiles. NYTimes downloads fast and size is around 1Mb. Newsweek is coming much slower, size is around 4-5 Mb and my reader opens and formats it very slowly (today's download has over 5000 pages).

Would you consider putting a limit on number of articles in each section? In today's "National News" and "World News" it gets articles all the way back from June. "National News" alone has 1,200+ pages. "World News" is around 800 pages, "Health" adds 500+ pages, "Entertaintment" is another 800 pages. It would be better to download only last 10-15 articles or last 2-3 weeks, in each section. You could hardcode a reasonable number or make it an option.

Do you have other favorite newspapers/magazines that may make to the libprs500?

Thanks,
David
