I haven't bought a printed DRF in a long, long time. When I was at Monmouth two weeks ago, I saw some for sale. I think my jaw dropped when I saw the price - $11.
I agree with Mitch. Our primary interest is the information with which we can handicap races. The articles are incidental, although I'll confess I have enjoyed the occasional DRF article (and I loved Andy Beyer's columns in the Washington Post and later DRF).
But as George Harrison sang poignantly, "All Things Must Pass."
