Watch Out - Automatic Renewals and No Refunds 28 Oct 2005
By News Reader - Published on Amazon.com
This is not a complaint about Amazon, just the Wall Street Journal On-Line. I subscribed to WSJ Online and used a credit card to pay. As my subscription was ending, I started receiving e-mails saying that my credit card had expired and the subscription would not renew. That was fine with me because I hardly ever used it. Despite those messages, the subscription did renew and I received a much higher charge on my credit card than I had paid in the previous year. When I tried to cancel my unwanted subscription I was told that WSJ Online would not give any refunds and that I was stuck with the one year subscription.

Great source for the latest information. 19 Oct 2000
By Bibliophile - Published on Amazon.com
I had subscribed to the Wall Street Journal (paper edition) for several years and found it to be one of the best sources of information (financial and other) available. When Dow Jones decided to make the same information available via their web site, I subscribed immediately. Recently, I dropped the paper edition, and now only subscribe to the online version.

So, what's so good about this website? If you read the The Wall Street Journal regularly, you will have access to information that the general public only hears about several days later through standard media outlets. I found this to be the case time and time again. I would read some random article on Monday, and the following Thursday or Friday the local or national news would be featuring a "late breaking" story that was almost word-for-word what I had read about in the journal earlier! The website, while not perfect, allows you to search for specific articles, research various companies, and retrieve stock quotes. Yes, almost all of these features are available for free on other sites, but you get it all here in one place. The editorial section, while usually conservative, is well written and often has guest authors who are very "deep" in their particular subject area.

In some ways I miss the paper edition. You can take it with you, read it on the bus, sit outside and read it, etc. However, the benefits of the online edition more than make up for these deficiencies. I recommend this publication in the online format. For me, it has been money well spent.

Powerful Business Tool 19 Mar 2003
By P. Scott Pope - Published on Amazon.com
As a WSJ journal addict who is traveling a great deal, I found it better to eliminate my paper subscription and go electronic. At first, I had both the print and online versions, but I found the paper version wasteful as it still contains stock quotes and large print ads on stock offerings.

While I have no way of knowing if other reviewers have a different online WSJ with pop-up advertisements, which I doubt, there are none on mine. In fact, the online WSJ is vastly more streamlined than Forbes, Fortune, CNN, etc. The clutter-free layout allows for easy navigation.

The content of the WSJ is unparalleled. What makes the online version so powerful for business research, lead generation and job hunting is the search capability. My major complaint is that free search only goes back for thirty days. For those who want to pay [$] per article, you can use the advanced search page and access Factiva/Dow Jones, which covers hundreds of publication both large and small. Dow Jones argues that they have to compensate the content owners. Yet, they don't even offer WSJ articles that are already owned.

If you are looking for business ideas or contacts, the WSJ is an excellent publication. The online WSJ makes gathering this information less consuming than the print version.
