I was an ACM student member. I joined because of the clunkiness of accessing the DL through my university.

Well I was tricked. I don't care about the social stuff. I don't care about the conferences. All I wanted was access to the DL, your single most useful asset.

I didn't get that because it's not bundled. My fault for not reading the fine print. And the ACM's fault for treating one of the two core bodies of comp. sci. literature as a luxury item.

I will not be rejoining.
