Motley Fool books and services

[Duck Rabbit]

In general, how is the quality of information provided by Motley Fool? I didn't see any of their books in the reading list stickie. I am still in college and am very new to investing. I do enjoy the way they write. It is easier to understand than most stuff I read on the web. Also, are the services they sell on their website worth the money (e.g. Stock Advisor, Hidden Gems, etc.)? At this point in my life, I probably won't be doing much active trading, but once I graduate and start my job, I will be investing a lot in my 401k. I want to have a solid understanding of everything before I get started. So, if not Motley Fool, what is the best material to get me started?
