What magazines do you subscribe to?

In our digital world, almost any print media is instantly outdated. I quit getting news magazines cause week old news does little for me.

I still get Tropical Fish Hobbyist and Saltwater Aquarium Monthly, but that's it. Their advice is rarely outdated except by new technology.

I wanted to subscribe to Hustler just to support Larry Flint, but I just felt too dirty.

I used to get Golf Magazine, but seriously, If you really could fix my slice, that wouldn't be your cover story every damn month!

I never subsribed to anything except Donald Duck magazine as a child.

But as an adult, I went through periods I loved a certain magazine. I used to buy;

Rolling Stone
Interview
The Face
Wallpaper
Flaunt
The New Yorker
National Geographic
Entertainment Weekly
Frame (still love, love, love this one, but it's SO expensive)\
Butt

These days the ONLY mag I buy every month is Empire, a UK movie mag that uses tools like sarcasm and celebrates fanboyism and geekism. It's not cheap, but I get a good ratio out of it, as I read EVERYTHING in it, except ads.
Seriously. Good reviews, fun articles.

I only get Dog Fancy,but I use to subscribe to The Robb Report. I use to love looking at all the beautiful houses,and other stuff in their that I will never be able to afford in my lifetime. Then it got depressing looking at it,and knowing it was out of reach so I stopped,and also the fact that each issue was like $6,so yeah...neat stuff though! nod

I currently get:

Vogue
W
Vegetarian Times


I'll probably give up Vogue, but keep the others. I never get through magazines. I used to get Bust and I kind of miss that one. But I've kinda outgrown it. confused I also like Paper, but seeing as I don't live in NYC it seems silly for me to get it regularly.

i have a subscription to the new yorker and to america's home kitchen (shut up, the recipes kick ass).

i used to subscribe to the believer, but their subscription service is horrible and i'm tired of getting an issue in the mail after the next month's issue already hit the newsstands. mad

apparently i got a subscription to cat fancy for my birthday, but i haven't gotten an issue yet. lol

I see alot of people with cooking mags on their list. I used to get those too, but I got tired of reading about work at home. Now that I'm out I should start getting them again.

I do like to read online though. Lots less paper used.
