I hope they do decide to offer Kindle support in the future. Perhaps given Amazon's decision to discontinue offering magazine subscriptions they might see enough demand for another format to make it worth their while.

Amazon now offers magazines via Kindle Unlimited. So if there are magazines that you want and Amazon offers them via KU, I suggest getting a KU subscription. The thing is that magazines via Overdrive are not going to be every issue.
