Dipy, I must say reading your posts you are a real bore.
Here you are freeloading on library copies of Marketimer,
which Timer Digest ranks as one of the top market timing
newsletters for the decade of the nineteen-nineties,
and all you do is complain about it. Why don't you just
stop reading it (free) and go on to your other favorite
newsletters? Come to think of it, why don't you just move on?

Marketimer owes you nothing as a library freeloader.
By the time you learn of a major change your portfolio will
probably be devoured by the bear. And then you will probably
blame the library or invent a new culprit for your problems.

>>Besides, a $200 expense on a newsletter subscription is a drag of 0.2% on the returns, assuming a portfolio worth $100,000.<<

This "drag", however, becomes negligible if one's net worth is now double what it would have been had the newsletter advice not been followed. Many don't have the time or the desire to go to the library in order to avoid compensating BB $15 a month, or the time to listen to all of the radio shows.
