apparently the password server is on the fritz and they have unlocked the digital edition for now. No password required.

Heartbleed vuln in effect :)

It seems to be working now. I am unable to access any articles.

Oh well, no sneek-a-peek for me!

Consider yourself lucky!

I pay for CA digital content. I'm happy with it. Not a bad deal for me. $13.99 monthly. They also just called me and said that for 1 cent more per month, they will deliver the Sunday paper to my home.

I can understand that some folks don't want to pay, so that's fine with me. Just wanted to interject that there are satisfied customers for the service.

No wife = perfect life.

Let's face it, they give the best Tiger coverage in town...hands down. No contest. They do a pretty good job at it. But some people just can't handle that they give SEC cover also. It's a business.

If you are still paying 13.99 a month you are getting a bad deal. The new management changed the pricing at the beginning of this year and the digital only subscription is only 4.99 a month.

I was mad that they did not let existing subscribers know this, and cancelled my subscription….but I got another one later from groupon for $26 for a year.

I get it too for $4.99 per month, plus I did take their $ .01 Sunday deal. I had cancelled the hard copy a week ago and kept the digital. They are scrambling to keep that rag alive.

There are other sources for local "NEWS" and elsewhere for really good national/world wide coverage. Just sayin' .

To me (and a LOT of other people), it's not the SEC and it's not the money, it's the liberal agenda I refuse to subsidize.

Oh, they are far left, but so is most of the media in the USA. I keep my politics separate from my sports. I subscribe just to read the sports section.

The rest of it is wasted on me as I never read it. If my name appears in the obituaries, for instance, I won't see it. I figure someone will let me know if that happens.
