scribd seems to be as annoying as NYT, why do I need to sign in to download?

So they can drive up their valuation with an inflated number of "registered users".

Scribd is just plain annoying. You can't copy and paste, highlight (yes, I highlight my lines when I read). It's completely non-user friendly. I don't get what the hubub is. Also, I'm sure this would be interesting if I could read the damn thing without any completely un-needed browser plug-ins (IT'S TEXT!)

It's a PDF with images and graphs but I get your point. If you're on a Mac, PDFs are a non-issue and I prefer them over anything else because I can easily save them for printing & later viewing.

So how is dropbox? You just made my day with that file, because I really dislike scribd. Probably the most annoying thing on the internet (of course, after the Rick Astley pranks).

I dont get all the hate. I personally think scribd is awesome... it makes showing documents on the web way easier! On windows I hate viewing PDF's cause it makes me load up acrobat.

Plus A LOT of people are retarded and don't know how to view or download a PDF.
