I receive the Military Times Early Bird Brief each morning via email and peruse it for veterans articles and branch items of interest to share across my social media sites for other veterans and military members.

Since, they only allow you to view so many articles before wanting to charge you by week I can no longer access articles from the branch times or Stares and Stripes and some of the other city rags.

I understand they need to make money, however I don't believe they need to make money form folks that are only reading the Early Bird headlines or prevent you from reading them, because you won't pay the 1.66 per month per each branch and Military times. This also includes groups like Stars and Stripes that wants you to pay .99 cents for 7 more views.

Who needs who here is one of the questions? I can always find the information elsewhere and stop look at your articles, which is what will happen and in turn I will also have no use for the Early Bird Brief anymore either and will unsubscribe from that as well.

I only need the headlines and articles form the Early Bird Brief, can't you get IT folks to figure out how if we access a headline form Early Bird Briefs, then we can go through your whole publication unless we do subscribe for the entire publication?

Many of us only want the information to share with others that might use it. With in the next few weeks, I will have to drop Military Times and Early Bird Brief because I won't be able to access the articles.

I will have to find a new venue to get news from and share with other veterans. I now you are not trying to lose folks but you will. I hope you take a look and review your thought processes on this issue.
