It's very annoying to be told to visit URLs or utilize resources that no longer exist or don't function as advertised. The 'free' app they constantly plug doesn't seem to work without some kind of obtuse subscription that is never mentioned or explained, and every time I tried to visit a webpage they spell out I was redirected to a generic page that seemed to want me to become a client of the parent company. All in all, way too much of this book felt like I was being marketed to rather than instructed.
