I am subscribed to online chess clubs only. As you mentioned, it is more convenient and you get more exposure. I can play even at the middle of the night and know what’s going on in the chess world.
Yes, I have learnt a lot by playing with computers. It has helped me in improving my game. Also, you can select the level at which computer will be playing with you, which is beneficial as you can increase the level with time.
I like both Magnus Carlsen and Viswanathan Anand. I have learnt a lot of interesting moves by watching their games and really like the mindset of both the players. Each of them have influenced me in their own way.

Kramnik had trained some Indian players. It would be interesting to see how they shape up in the future. I guess it would have been a lifetime experience to get training from a Grandmaster.
