Not an unreasonable cost especially if we can get a lot of people switched off print. It also is not a bad advertising tool because we could very easily advertise the url. Also depending on how we promote it, the electronic publication could be a benefit for our advertisers and perhaps command a premium if they want to be in the online version.

I have written to ask them if they have a more appropriate (and less costly solution) for the collection.
