    Is it possible to find the Hyperspace Literature section anywhere else other then collecting the dozens of short story collections and magazines that these were found in? I don't have a membership but the Literature section interests me greatly. I think they should have a literature only membership for people that don't want to get all the spoilers and such or the Insider magazine (People like me). Anyone got any ideas?

    there are twisted ways to get them.. but these are illegal. It is not allowed to post them elsewhere or distribute them via sharing software.

    Unfortunatly, for some people like you, Hyperspace is a package deal, so if there's only one thing in it that you're interested in it's probably not worth it.

    Dream/ How incredible would it be if they published all of that in a Star Wars Short Story Anthology. I would pay the $40+ if I got a hard copy of the stories. Kind of like the Tales of ... but in one thick, possibly hard cover, edition. Or a series of hardcovers... /Dream

    That would be cool, but they won't do it.

    They won't even publish a Tales from the Clone Wars short story collection :(

    They want our money. I'm half tempted to find some illegal ways of getting those stories just to spite them.

    I did take SW.com's survey. I basically told them I want the stories but I don't want anything else and I'm not goig to pay $40 bucks a year for them.

    For once we overseas guys get a better deal, we only have to pay like $20 - which is, face it, only a bit more than a tenner, heck I have that much in my back pocket right now - for Hyperspace.

    That's because you don't get the Insider subscription with it.

    >>and I'm not goig to pay $40 bucks a year for them.<<

    Suggestion then- wait until enough fiction has been reprinted on Hyperspace for your tastes that is, in your opinion, worth $40, then subscribe to Hyperspace for one year and archive the web pages on your computer to keep after your subscription expires- everything else would just be bonus content. Then just don't renew unless the same prerequisite is met.

    It's more the principle of it. I'm not going to pay for E-books either. I want them to print these so they can sit on my shelf. I hate reading stories on the computer.

    Just copy and paste them into a word processor, then print them.

    Voila!

    But, judging from the quality of recent issues - Mandalorian article aside - that's no great loss.

    As for Hyperspace, I think I got my money's worth on the first day. You could spend hours looking through what's been archived already, and it's only after a couple of weeks, and near-daily updates, that you realise just what absolute terrific value for money it is.

    That's what I did with Judge's Call. (No I didn't get it illegally. It was free @ delrey.com or something) But I was still dissappointed it wasn't in SQ.
