The exact opposite arguments were being made maybe a year ago: it was felt
that subscribers to JVP should get the print articles ahead of the PDFs
being released online.
I suppose you could say that the best system is when both are made
available at exactly the same time, but at least under the print-first
system, real members get priority.
This said, I know at least one person (in the US) yet to receive their
print copy.

When will the new Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology be available
online? I received my print copy over a week ago, but I've been
waiting to check out some of the on-line supplementary material.
What's the point in releasing the print copy so far ahead if the
electronic supplementary material won't be available then?
