Google Newspapers archives stops digitizing old newspapers

Post by Brutu »

Google announced this week that its stopping its 5 year project(since 2008)to digitize all the known newspapers in the world since the late 1700's.
How much will this now affect your amateur historian hobby of searching old newspapers about old tyme boxers and boxing?
(it was also free,I just was thinking last month that this service was just too good to be true,before some greedy f*cks were goning to ruin it for everyone).
