I've been wondering that myself. I guess as an author, you know right away if something is or isn't working so you can change it, and it may help to keep some authors focused, knowing that people are expecting new chapters on a regular basis.
As a reader, though, no thanks. I never read serials in the magazines when they did them, and I have no interest in this, either.
I have a very hard time with fan fiction sites for this same reason. I will read stories that are complete, but the ones where people keep adding to it all the time make me crazy.
I know that there are a lot of people who love to read this way, but for me, it just doesn't work.
