The new, improved Bleeding Edge subscription
Over the past couple of days we've been fiddling with an external mailing list manager to handle the Bleeding Edge subscriptions. It's an additional expense, but we hope it's going to simplify what's becoming an increasingly tedious and not altogether error-free process. If you're a subscriber, you should have received an introduction to the list, and the latest column on DVD burners.
We've also started adding more information to these despatches, so that subscribers get substantially more information than appears in the print version. There's some helpful information in this one on how to get the best possible MP3s from your audio CDs, and some additional stuff on PC magazines. We're thinking seriously of including a monthly summary of what's available in the most popular titles, so subscribers can decide whether it's worth buying a particular issue.
If you haven't yet subscribed, let us know, and we'll send you details. We're working on making it the best $25 investment you'll ever make in computing.

Hi Charles,
I think you have enough work already without doing a summary of all the topics the computer magazines are running. I prefer what you do now-ie let us know if something of particular interest comes up (no matter what the source). There is so much information out there and I don't have time to read much of it so I rely on you to filter out what's important! All I have time to do each day is check my email and read the bleeding edge blog.
Regarding the weekly emails to subscribers, it would be helpful if you could highlight the extra information in some way. I say this because many of us probably read the print version in the Green Guide first and don't want to have to read the entire article again on email to see what is different.
You will soon receive a 'top up' of my subscription by direct funds transfer-don't confuse it with a new subscription. You have all my details from previous emails.
Regards, Edgy.
