> Why folks continue to use them confuses me.

Seems like the “confused” is disingenuous when not paying for content you read is a clear motivation.

Convenience as a higher order motivator than disgust at the bad behavior of archive.{today,ph,...} mentioned elsewhere, I think is the point of the comment to which you replied.

  • Convenience is by definition one step.

    Disgust requires research, analysis, and decision. The research alone is beyond most users' general practice.

    Why would anyone walk in the front door when they could hop a fence, pry open a window, and crawl in?
