Ack, yes - I am fortunate enough that for me, it's only a matter of preference, but I know many people who can't read on the computer because of their eyes. Which makes it even more incomprehensible why some authors only publish their stories in so many bits and pieces.
Sometimes, I've even written to authors to ask them if their story is available in a single file in any format. Usually they've been nice enough to send the story to me by email. But this is a step I only take in the case of stories I really, really want to read - I will simply give up on stories I am only moderately interested in, if there's too much work involved.

So, yes!! Lifesaver indeed. :-)
