Anything I buy must be physical - eviltoast

I don’t like subscribing to nonphysical things. I can read a physical paper a month after it arrived. Digital is faster, but I tend to lose it before I have read it.

I need a recipient in my pocket. Too often my virtual thing is lost, my device fails, or things reboot and I don’t have my secure 24 digit password with me.

I won’t subscribe to a digital only anything. Physical and digital is nice.

Edit: They don’t even have to be identical. A digital daily with a monthly print would be nice.

    There are a very few magazines I like to get in print, and even that minimal number gets out of control so fast. I use the library for digital books but pay for music streaming and get a thousand times more utility out of that money than I would using it to buy a CD. Also pay for music performance live, and a few bucks to the community radio station.

    And personally I do have more trouble managing physical items, and easily feel overwhelmed by stuff.

    Library is the way to go, and community radio.
