Reply To: Internet's Effects on Talmud Torah

I am ambivalent about it. On the one hand, it is good that the information is available to all so easily. On the other, it is also nice to learn things that are “exclusive and hidden”, to be needed and admired over your learning and to “need” your chavrusa. What do you think a practical answer is to this? I know many yeshivos don’t allow artsscroll in the yeshiva so one chavrusa “needs” the other- but that seems like we are just fighting a growing trend and it won’t be effective outside of the yeshiva or in the long run.
