<DIV>I've always looked at it differently. I've long heard that "you are doing
work that benefits the company" but to me, the subscription services are
providing a place/forum and resources for us to carry out our research. When we
make an addition, transcription, or correction to the data they house and
provide for us, we are doing it for ourselves and for other researchers.
Any benefits to the subscription service itself is purely secondary. They took
the initial step of making the data accessible for us or giving us a place to
house our data that otherwise would have cost us directly.</DIV>
