I'm not sure about Instapaper (haven't used it for a long time), but Pocket has great support for multi-page stuff, and handled this like a champ.

Full disclosure: I'm a big Pocket fan, and a big Instapaper anti-fan.

I know this question is going a little off-topic but what do you dislike about Instapaper? Is there something they can do something to that will help you change your mind?

I much prefer Pocket's abilities to handle multiple media types.

I like how Pocket is a first-class citizen on all of the platforms I use, not just iOS. I know Instapaper has an Android app, but it sucks.

I prefer the design of Pocket over Instapaper. I'm not a designer, so I can't comment on which is actually "better", only which I prefer.

I do prefer Instapaper's business model. I would like a chance to pay for Pocket.

Finally, I am not a huge fan of Marco Arment, and would rather support Pocket than him.

Thank you for your honesty. The final point means that Pocket (never fully understood the name change from Read It Later, perhaps because like you said it supports different media types not just text?)

I've never tried instapaper. At some point I got lazy and stopped marking stories as read on Pocket/RIL and now I have this ginormous (almost 2 GB) of things to read. So what did I do instead of reading? I uninstalled the app and the bookmarklet.

The Instapaper bookmarklet in Chrome captured all 9 chapters in one Instapaper entry for me.
