New York Times and Wall Street Journal only work sporadically
I have these two set to be downloaded and emailed to Kindle every morning. Sometimes they work; sometimes they just hang forever. I could post logs but there are almost never any actual error messages. The downloads just get stuck on something mid-stream and the wheel keeps spinning for hours and hours.
Generally if I try them manually later in the day (after I've finally noticed the failure), they work ok.
This happens with both the NYTimes daily paper and the Web recipes. I've occasionally set both to download automatically in hopes that at least one will complete.
With regard to the Wall Street Journal, if it doesn't get stuck, I often experience what many others have seen: incomplete paper. Most days the WSJ has 7 sections. But often all I get are 4, or 5, or 6. What's missing varies. If I download manually to try to get the whole paper, I may still get fewer than I should, but the missing sections differ each time. I've often had to retry the download 5 or 6 times in a row before I finally get the whole thing.
Once in a while I'll get a real failure, with a message, like "no articles found", but generally there's no message; the download just hangs. And when it hangs, it usually seems to be stuck at an image. That's the case with both the WSJ and the NYT.
