I bet harness and have access to 5-10 tracks online in the run of a day, I like certain classes and want to do a quick scan through each card to see if something catches my eye..... I can't do that. Or, I suppose I can but it's going to cost me $25 before I get started. It's just one more way racing likes to stay in the dark ages.

Are you kidding? The only thing better than getting $2.00 from you for a hard copy that is paid for by advertisers, is to sell you a .PDF copy that costs virtually nothing to produce for $1.00. I'd bet that the industry makes more net cash from its publishing empire than it does from wagering take-out.
