SAE in electronic form?

Hi,

for the first I would like to thank for a terrific magazine and a website, that both are valuable assets for the hobby! With 20 inches snow on the ground, temperatures below -10 C (about 14F) and the Christmas time rapidly approaching, there's just one dark cloud in the sky: the inevitable major housecleaning project is closer than ever. While everything else is pretty straightforward, one major issue is driving me nuts. What to do with all valuable reference material in form of various magazines scattered around (mostly) in working room? Archive them in storage to be found by archeologists? Throw them away?!

Even in our neck of woods (=country where Santa is from, you know) different tablet computers and ebook readers are making a big break-through this year. Would this be the solution? While I do appreciate the feeling and the smell that a fresh printed magazine has, space and storage issues are becoming a headache. While paper industry certainly needs some support, there's also the environmental aspect.

Thus, I'm presenting a question for my fellow modellers and for the staff at SAE: would the magazine in electronic form be of interest? Would it be feasible? I see a lot of possibilities here: easier access to old valuable articles, integrating the magazine and webplace even closer together etc. What say you?
