Meh...I canceled my Safari Online subscription. To me it actually helps to focus on a small number of books. Also it's just painful to read on their website, compared to reading PDFs.
Another thing: this particular sale is about freedom from DRM. Safari is a joint venture between O'Reilly and Pearson. Pearson is on that list of SOPA supporters. It also feels encumbered to me, and I don't feel like I'm supporting the authors much if I read them.

I think it might be a good complement to buying eBooks but I don't think I'd read more than a couple chapters without getting it in a format that I can read without being logged into their website.
