Magazine subscriptions?

[amberpi]

What do you get? In what form?

I get The Economist and The New Yorker online. I pick up a copy of Dwell often enough I should just get a subscription, that one is physical paper because I plain old like to look at the pretty pictures.

I've been a Car and Driver subscriber since the early '80s. Still get the magazine, but honestly am falling pretty far behind in my reading. Time is short. Years ago, I used to finish it within a week of getting it...now I'm 3 months behind.

I’m down to Boating and a free subscription to Field & Stream (only because it’s free). I used to get several. Paper all the way!

I use Texture on my Tablet. So I get just about every magazine you can think of about 10 bucks a month. And most I can get over a year of back issues too.

Why this? For The Economist, well, they have constant content outside of the print edition and the print edition online, so that and the New Yorker make sense to have less paper recycling waste. For me, Dwell is just drooling over the pictures, so the print edition makes more sense. Is Boating more reading or more drooling over boats you'll never be able to afford? Is that why you like the physical copies? Curious always, not criticizing.

OHHHHH! I just pulled it up. It doesn't have my first 2 faves, but it has a ton of titles I'd read. Happy Holidays to me

The only time I even look at a magazine is while waiting on the doctor.

I just really prefer print over online. It’s easier & faster to flip through, and the pictures are BIGGER. I just enjoy it much more (I can access the articles online & sooner, but I’d rather wait for the print copy to arrive).

Downright liking something one way or the other can be as simple as that. I had a conversation about favorite words the other day. Both of my responses were "I just like it."

I don't think we have any current subscriptions right now. My younger son got a year of Sports Illustrated for Kids as a Christmas present last year, but all our magazine subscriptions of the past we've let expire.

Lol! Fair enough.

 

[cabanafrau]

Haven't had any for several years. I got tired of the pile of clutter that was only building and rarely being read.

 

[Colleen27]

I get Rolling Stone, In These Times, Sojourners, and This Old House, and I pick up Grit, Mother Earth News, Mary Jane's Farm and a few other home/garden titles if there happens to be an interesting project in a particular issue. Older DD gets Teen Vogue, and younger DD gets Highlights.

I prefer print or tablet apps that reproduce the print layout in digital format, rather than a subscription that gives unlimited access to content on the publication's website.

 

[mamamary]

I don't subscribe to any magazines (just two newspapers) but my husband gets about 4 Car magazines, 3 running magazines and Entertainment Weekly. I used to get People but I just look at it online.

I've loved magazines since I was a child. My fist subscriptions were to Disney News and Tiger Beat.
