The problem with products like Encarta was bias and the speed of updating the mistakes, misinformation, etc. I had Encarta, and Internet wasn't an option back then, I had it in a CD. But today it would be nice to have some product that competes with the vastness of Wikipedia.

It competed against very expensive and bulky sets of books, so the update speed was more than acceptable.

  Indeed. It was the best option back then. I've attended a conf. of Jimmy Wales and he mentioned the same problems that enciclopedias had.
