As an avid reader of Seattle's soon to be discontinued Post-Intelligencer newspaper (another Hearst venture) I'd be thrilled to see an internet version continue on and one day appear on their large format e-reader.
As much as I like to read the paper I've never been into the sheer volume of raw materials needed to produce them, yet the online format is restricted by the frame and controls on my web browser and the size of my laptop screen.
One thing is for sure - any newspaper that goes Internet only before this depression kicks in will be reaping the rewards when papers who currently rely on print as their main source of distribution fall by the wayside, which they surely will.
