Personally I like Asimov's the best just because of the writers it publishes and the fact that is mostly sf since I do not like fantasy as much.
FSF is second, has some quite interesting writers too, but too much fantasy for my taste.
I dislike Analog, their stories are very rarely on my taste and many of their writers are on my top to avoid sf writers (scientist saving the world worked in the 50's but nowadays seems quaint)
There are 2 more interesting sf magazines published by Fictionwise though both you gotta get issue by issue not being regular, Aeon which has some great issues and some so-so, and Challenging Destiny which again has some surprisingly good issues.
I was a club member for the first year of Baen's Universe and I was very dissapointed by the magazine; very few stories that I liked, mostly J. Ringo and some new authors, so now I wait for each issue of the second year, preview it and buy it if there is something of interest only.
On the other hand I love the 163* universe, so I became a club member when it went regular last year (read all previous issues too, some bought, some came with the Universe membership) and I still love it, so I will renew my membership if it continues next year...
