Three, interest in maintaining-let's face it, most people only keep hobbies for 4-5 years before moving on to other stuff that interests them more now.

I love our local newspaper, but alas, due to vision damage, cannot read it. It annoys me that I can't access the ads and coupons using the electronic version. I get the Sunday paper because not only do I get the ads, but my Mom and brother also get to read it (they don't read it during the week).
Just as a note, when my father was having vision problems (lasted about a year but eventually got corrected), I bought him a Floor lamp/magnifier so he could read the paper. Don't know if it would help you, or not.
