You can download and print 142 sheets for $1?? What about the cost of your internet connection, the paper, wear and tear on the printer, and of course, your time? [/B][/QUOTE]
Yes. I can buy a ream of paper for $3. I'm going to have an Internet connection and a printer whether I download the NCAA rulebook or not.
Time? I have a cable connection. I can download it a 5MB file in less than a minute and print it in less than 10 minutes. That's less time that it would take me to fill an order form from the NCAA, write a check, take it to the post office and mail it. Then I've got to wait a week and a half to receive it.
10 minutes vs 10 days. $1.00 vs. $12.29. Yeah, I see your point.
Is that Australian logic?
