Why subscribe to these texts when it's likely you won't have time to read them all the way through? For the same reasons that sighted people subscribe to print newspapers and magazines with dozens of pages they'll never read, but just skim over. You get to choose to read only those news stories and articles that interest you. All items begin with this search term: "_next article" and you can simply read the headline and first few sentences of each item to see if you wish to jump forward to the next article or settle back and get the full story. So while a compilation can have dozens of articles you might choose to briefly note the headlines and opening paragraph of most items and read fully that 10 or 12 items of special interest to you. The best way to find out about these titles is to try a sample run of an issue or two, then cancel if you wish.
