I would be most interested in learning which for pay web sites are considered "the best bang for the buck" without duplicating too much.

I have always been curious about Newspaper Archive, and wondering if the full version offers any advantage over the library version, which I'm able to access at home from my local library. Recently I saw an offer on the APG Member Discount Program (http://www.apgen.org/members/discounts.html) for a 1-month free subscription to Newspaper Archive. When I called the company to set it up, I asked if there was any difference, and the customer service representative said no. A little research on my part verified that answer. So, if you're able to access Newspaper Archive through your local library, don't spend money on a subscription! I have found GenealogyBank worth the money, and have subscribed to it for almost 5 years now.
