it's not easy to navigate... but i assume you clicked some ads. 
under the af-graphic on the title poage, there's enter, click that, not top 20 fonts.
i just clicked through to font library without any popup... |

Yeah. I really would like to hear that. www.fontfoundry.com offers a download basket, but it still pruduce much hard time in downloading. |

----
if you consider time is money, it would probably be easier/cheaper to walk into a computer store and buy a font CD. Most of them come with hardcopy sample pages. Its great to have 3000 fonts but I find it easier to flick through pages of a book looking for the fonts that I want, rather than cycling through every single font I have available on my machine. Sure you could print them out but then it takes time and you have all these lose bits of paper lying about. Someone might correct me if I'm wrong but you can only have somewhere between 500-1000 fonts actually properly installed on your computer at one time.

| www.1001fonts.com - is where I picked up almost all the fonts that I use daily. It offers a really good selection and previews. |
