I have not gotten a subscription or the trial, but I have bought individual editions of the NY Times Book Review section ($.99). At least in the case of this particular magazine, it is completely reformatted, essentially into a linear format - i.e. just plain text. The information was there, but it does not look anything like a magazine.
For something like the NY Times Book Review, it works nicely, since you mostly want to read the reviews. If I remember correctly, there is some type of Contents, allowing you to jump to a particular review.
If you are worried about the look and feel of a particular magazine, I think it is a good idea to buy a single issue and try it. If you are worried about the way the subscription system works (when you get the issues, etc), I cannot help there.
