    I think they should pull all the HNNs together and release them in a book someday.

    Including the similar type articles WEG did, such as in the Adventure Journals.

    However this topic was already brought up in the official HNN thread.

    I voted definitely. UK users can't get their dose of HNN if it isn't online.

    A book edition would be an amazing resource to have, but they'd need a lot of it. Working for a Clone Wars site, the information on it is incredibly helpful, but it also links together some information that helps bridge the series together.

    I just wish I'd heard of the first on-line one before it ended. That would have been nice. [face_sigh]

    I'd like to see it back. I was a latecomer to the online HNN but I liked what I saw. The Insider HNN is a poor replacement. It would be neat if they started an online CIS Shadowfeed also, as seen in Insider.

    So long as they didn't discontinue the printed version of HNN/SF, I'd like to see a weekly online version again ::)

    I voted no. We've got the Insider edition (well, at least us Americans and Canadians). If the Insider edition were to be removed, change that to a yes!

    I think they should pull all the HNNs together and release them in a book someday.

    That's what I've been doing for a long time. I scan every HNN from Insider and put it in a binder that I have designated for HNN articles. I do the same for e-books that won't see paperback release.

    Yes... as long as it wasn't a Hyperspace exclusive. [face_plain]

    It will probably be a Hyperspace exclusive.

    I hope not. It wouldn't be so bad if the price was decent but even online games that clearly use tons more bandwidth and servers then a website don't charge that much to play their games. The prices for those are around $15 and its what $30-40 for Hyperspace which is a website with information and maybe something on the webcam from time to time? Can we say major rip off?

    I want it. If it's hyperspace only, I'll be pissed.

    Yeah, as will I. But since I'm planning on getting it next time I re-subscribe to Insider, I'm not going to complain too much.

    Actually, I could see it being a combination of free and hyperspace-excluisve articles.

    ie: the headline would be available on the free portion of TOS as an EP3 promotional tie in like HNN was originally to AOTC.

    ...however, for the secondary and minor articles, you'd have to subscribe to hyperspace to access.

    Or have part of an article available for free, but hyperspace the full article.

    To Kessel and back, yes!

    However knowing my luck: Hyperspace-only. Actually if it were, I might be bothered to sign up for the thing. I've had enough of not getting the HNN just because I'm stuck in England.

    I don't think that it would work mixed hyperspace and non-hyperspace, mainly because it would get really frustrating for both types.
