Actually, it's a little disappointing. I've searched the same source document in Ancestry.com which gives me three hits wheras WVR only gives one. Also, WVR doesn't show you the original image.

I don't subscribe to either just now - I just go in for a month every now and then as neither of them have really broad collections covering my areas of interest. WVR's a bit cheaper but I suppose you get what you pay for.
