[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What magazines do you subscribe to? (Page 1 of 2)

Posted: 7/1/2015 1:03:16 AM EDT

Was just browsing and ran across subscriptions for Recoil magazine....holy shit. It's $55 or 65 a year. Then I started thinking, does anyone actually pay for that?

Unless American Rifleman counts, none.

Mostly D&H but some Magpuls and a couple Okay Industries ones too.

None. I just browse the magazine rack at the store occasionally and buy one if it has an article that interests me. Which isn't very often these days.

Recoil. Cheap on Kindle. I think I paid $25 or so for a year.

I used to get 7-8 different mags a month but not anymore. Sometimes I will pick up a Recoil,but $9 an issue is a little

to me.

I get a ton of magazines for free but the two I pay for are National Review and The Economist (at $129 a year).

The last one was Hot Rod, but I don't even do that anymore.

In the Internet age magazines seem obsolete, same with cable TV.

I expect they'll both die out as the older generations do.

Magpul and U.S. GI.

I have a gift subscription to Shooting Times.

I used to get:
- Sport Compact Car
- Super Street
- I've had a couple gift subscriptions to Hot Rod over the years
- Electronic Gaming Monthly
- GamePro

Although any morsel of information one desires is now available on the internet, there's something I miss about having an actual physical magazine in your hands. And dat feel when you open up the mailbox to see your new issue waiting to be read

The Economist. Though I guess technically it's a weekly newspaper rather than a magazine.

I had Architectual Digest for a long time.

Just stopped this year. Half the magazine was ads.

Car and driver, road and track, and motor trend. Along with half a dozen ladies magazines. My wife finds deals online for either free or dirt cheap magazine subscriptions.

I receive Forbes magazines in the mail. I am not sure who signed me up for it because I never did.

Shooting Times (meh...)

Predator (good)

RECOIL.

Only "subscription" I have is American Rifleman. I don't subscribe to Recoil and Offgrid but I have bought every issue so far. I should probably subscribe to save some money.

Digital subscriptions in many cases is a better value.

I don't like reading magazines electronically. I don't like reading books electronically either.

I can't be the only one who hates ebooks and emagazines.

AOPA Pilot
American Rifleman (digital)

Will occasionally pick something up off a rack, but rarely.

Paper mags just can't keep up with the net.

Don't even get subscription offers anymore.
Guess they finally figured out if I wouldn't subscribe for 6 bucks a year, I just wasn't interested.

Motor Trend, Cycle World, Car Craft, and American Rifleman. Even in the internet age I still like to get a magazine in the mail and go to bed an hour early and read it. Cheap entertainment.

American Rifleman

Model Aviation

(both of those are because I'm a member of the orgs)

Unmanned Systems Technology (I expressed interest, so they keep sending issues begging for money

)

Grassroots Motorsports

I think I've gotten to the point where I hate all books, regardless of format. I just don't have the attention for it anymore. I read the texts I have to, and relax on Arfcom. I have a hard time finishing movies too.
