Guaranteed. The "Grey Lady" moving to a pure digital format would do WONDERS for the e-ink industry, but there are some pitfalls there.
PROS:
- "Tree-huggers" will be overjoyed. (For obvious reasons)
- MUCH wider distribution, ability to extend readership toa younger demographic.
CONS:
- Guaranteed not to be free. Freedom of the press does not mean Press output is free.
- DRM issues will be even bigger and noisier than ever before.
- Ads take on a whole new meaning
- Just IMAGINE the licensing nightmare of electroniclly distributing the comic section!
Unkowns:
- Supported formats? Always a favorite arguement
Let the flaming begin.....
...and before anyone can attempt hammering me on the "tree-hugger" bit, it is meant as a jesting generalization..I drive a hybrid myself...I get it.....
