It printed mostly fine for me (mac, chrome). It did not print the comments, which to be honest I'm not even sure about how you would go about showing the comments (which are often very large) in a printed page.

"Thanks, for me this was mostly another illustration how to make a website that doesn't." - sounds pretty harsh to me.

This seems a bit harsh. As far as I understand the purpose of this website is to make papers easier to understand. I think it accomplishes that. They are not even trying to show you ads. how are you helping?...

Also, they might have restrictions about distribution of papers. Youtube also doesn't have a download link next to every video.

Considering how important Open Source is to modern tech companies, 300k is just a drop in an ocean.
