With so much available on the internet I've dropped all but one magazine subscription, and that one is an association paid magazine . Or to put it more succinctly, I've dropped four magazine subscriptions.
I had free access to one of the ones that I dropped. They wanted me to try it and possibly re-subscribe. The internet version of the magazine was as Kenny said (for) -
"“semiclosed platforms,” devices that deliver a certain type of content over the Internet through specially designed software packages"
The problem was I don't read magazines the way that the "specially designed software" expects me too. I ended up tagging company’s email address as junk and had it automatically deleted.
Strangely enough, the one thing that I enjoyed was the advertising. Companies had to actually pay a significant amount of money for me to see it, so it wasn't as bad as internet ads.
