I'm still downloading a paper to DR. I think one thing that kills the usability of Press Reader is its file size. It takes about 3 minutes to download an issue (~30MB) to DR. If they think seriously about supporting DR, they must optimize their app.

Added> I found PressReader on DR is quitely well optimized. Navigating and reading 150MB file(washington post) is really interactive. Quality of applicaiton itself is beyond my expectation!
