    It is pretty cheap , I've noticed more articles are being part of the Insider than before. I understand it is about generating revenue for ESPN. Very good insight especially college football , recruiting, free agency & etc is part of that access.

    Not for me, if there is an article I want to read usually a quick search will find it.

    You can copy & paste their teaser copy into Google and find the full post within seconds. Maybe if you want to use their fantasy sports tools it'd be worth it.

    I would say that it is NOT worth it just based on the fact that they will send you a free subsription of ESPN the Magazine...which may be the most useless (and large) magazine ever printed

    Yes as long as you don't read any of the eggball stuff. You'll be dumber for it.

    I got the magazine subscription for $5. they give you insider for free. discountmags.com usually has sales every so often. I don't really use it except when people beg for an article to be posted.

    i pay for it. Easy to read insider stuff when you want for super cheap. Don't have to bother searching and it's integrated into what i'm looking at...makes it worth it for me.

    Probably not very long now. That is pretty funny though.

    It's worked for a few months at least. Any time I see a thread about insider I post this tip and get repped so hopefully it works for a while longer :)

    You must be joking???

    In no way is it piracy to view English content. If ESPN provide free content on a different domain, thdn there is nothing wrong with using that domain to view it.
