I like the hard copy. In a time where we have to get on line to view majority of things, I find it nice to have a magazine that I can hold and flip through the pages to read, pictures to study and be able to take with me much easier than a computer that is needed to view things online.
I agree. I like getting it in my mail box each issue. I like that I can read it when I want, take it with me to my son's tennis lessons (extra advertising for USMS), etc.
As for those who don't want to join USMS because they don't want to pay a coach. Fine they can join USMS and be unattached and continue to swim on their own. No one is forced to swim under a coach with USMS. The fee for USMS is so affordable. Like Geek said USAT is so much more for joining and for participating.
