The biggest advantage is that there is very little preparation necessary for startup. Just start the list and start the list and start eMailing. Some disadvantages to a mailing list is that if there are hundreds of messages a day, you get hundreds of eMail in your mailbox. This can be inconvenient at times. Someone has to maintain the list, especially if its moderated. Plus, don't forget that some international users have to pay for each eMail, whether they read it or not! Some things to consider.
