I strongly recommend the web version. The searching is more flexible, and it is updated more frequently--but the key feature is the links.
For those who have JCR, this is especialy important, as there are now links to it, giving this very important aditional information.

The only problem is that the web version only contains the current years' information. This may be no objection in some settings, but a research library that wishes to maintain an archival record still needs to obtain the print as well as the web.

Just ask for a trial and see for yourself.
