Today I received an email from MyHeritage News introducing OldNews.com.
After logging into OldNews.com with my MH credentials, and attempting to perform a search, I found there is an additional non-trivial annual charge for this service.
MH say that users can upgrade to an "Omni" subscription, but the price of said "Omni" subscription cannot be found anywhere within the MH website.
I have a MH Data Subscription and use it every day to resolve matches that enhance my Geni tree.
Today I saw results from OldNews.com in my Smart Matches, but I can't access them because I haven't paid the fee for a year of OldNews.com (which is published there) or the upgrade charge to "Omni" which isn't published anywhere.
I have a Newspapers.com bolted into my Ancestry account.
I searched OldNews.com for my grandfather, and found 4 entries that Newspapers.com does not have.
So it does work, and SmartMatching from OldNews.com into my Geni profiles is a lot less work than the hassle of writing a PDF for every Newspapers.com article and adding it as a Document to the Geni profile.
Has anybody here on Geni upgraded to Omni yet?
If so, what are your impressions; was it worth it?
Can anybody here on Geni direct me to the pricing for Omni?
Thanks--GMK
