Safari Books - Warning to subscribers
-
I've been using Safari online books for several years now: I like[ed] to have books rather than just API docs, MSDN - and of course Code Project. Last week I got an offer to move to New Safari books. I just tried it - which I understood would cancel my current subscription. I didn't realise that all of my existing Safari favourites, bookmarks and notes wouldn't be transferred. The "New" site looks noddy and is obviously not aimed at the same market. Despite the "can cancel anytime" blurb it also appears that there's no going back to the other subscription. Having been a subscriber for ~5 year - and having recommended Safari to a number of colleagues I am now a bit miffed. Any recommendations for legal online technical books sites? I may have to just start buying those papery things again.
