I do agree with the view about being more safe for kids or being useful for people not having internet access or not competent at searching the net. My question is: say you have broadband access and are good at searching info on the net, would you still have one of these encyclopedias installed? Do they have any added value?
Not really seeing as you can find any information you want over the web. But yet again some people arent experienced enough to get that information.
Also internet connection costs money when you can just get a cd for encarta and people can find their information without browsing the web. Seeing as this is cheaper.
