My Man and I are magazine fanatics. National Geographic, Playboy, Psychology Today, Harpers (I ended up with this as a fluke with a "deal" when you buy so many subscriptions) Martha Stewart Living, Country Living, Fortean Times (paranormal stuff from UK) and several others I forgot about, until they come. My Man has so many sports magazines, that they come every day, and I think if we would recondition our furnace, it could run on old issues of these sports magazine for most of the cold.

I miss Omni.

Just American Vogue and French Vogue. Sometimes I'll buy Vanity Fair, though.

I get magazine subscriptions rarely. I just hate having them laying around months afterward.

I've had Maxim (when it was cool), Entertainment weekly (which I liked), and would love to have a good science-y or ... more
Doctor Who magazine is like $100 for six issues! Totally ridiculous.

I had gift subscriptions to Seventeen and Disney magazine when I was younger. I actually quite enjoyed Seventeen magazine until they published a quiz in one issue named "Am I Gay?" with some pretty lame questions. That kind of killed it for me. Their makeup pages were awesome for tearing up for altered book projects, though.

Now I have a subscription to National Geographic and Readers Digest, the latter of which I am feeling more and more nonchalant about.

I get Cosmo, Fitness and Shape. I love having the actual magazine in my hands, so I'll probably always subscribe to something. I also clip out all the articles, ... more
I've gotten two issues so far and they have been well-worth the money! The stories are not just quickly thrown together crap, and there is a bit of great artwork too.

We get a few: Fangoria, Playboy, Time, and Muscle & Fitness. The rest I get from my Mom or sister when they're done with them.

Nintendo Power!! Yes.

We get Nintendo Power as well as Game Informer, but the latter is only because we have a Game Stop membership and it is included. If we could choose not to get it we would. It lost something for us a few years back. I want High Fructose, a digital art magazine (not sure which yet), National Geographic, the Japanese version of Vogue. If my house wasn't so cluttered, I'd get more.

I used to subscribe to a few like shape,cooking light,gourtmet,sevente en not all at once. I haven't subscribed to something in a long time because I have a large box filled with magazines because I don't want to throw out something I paid for and there is always something I want to save like a recipe,workout moves or information I'd like to take notes of. I just haven't gotten around to it.

So once you subscribe online will you have access to past issues or every issue you were given since you subscribed? It would be great to back and print out the recipes I want or put notes on a page kind of thing. I really want to subscribe to rachael ray,cooking light,shape,women's health,and fitness magazine and maybe a few more. Thats alot of magazines to read and keep track of but sounds like it oculd be really easy online

$100? Does that mean it is more than just an average magazine?

For $100, it better have pictures of a naked David Tennant or Matt Smith with a Dalek ... (Although I understand the pictures of a naked Jo Grant with a Dalek have sold for more now.)

My mags are House Beautiful, Renaissance Magazine, Victoria Bliss, and Cooking Light. A lot of my favorites went out of business, though.

Any of you gals remember Mode??

I'm not subscribed to anything really. I get Business Week and Forbes, but those were free and I barely read them. I used to be signed up for Teen Vogue, Alternative Press, and Cosmo Girl, but I'm not anymore.

Magazines from England are expensive in the US. I love Fortean Times. (It's about paranormal stuff and weird things like raining frogs or dogs with 2 heads and ghosts and UFOs and all kinds of cool stuff) and it costs about $11.00 an issue. I once got a subscription, but when I got the bill it was twice what they said it was on the form, so I canceled it. They have it once in a great while at Borders.

I get a mess of science magazines, and sometimes I'll snag some literary magazines at Barnes & Noble. I don't really read things like Cosmo and People though, unless someone I really love is on the cover. Then I might make an exception.

I don't subscribe to any magazines. If I do have a magazine, it is one my sister has brought over, and even then, I just skim through it.

I subscribe to Playboy, more for the stories than the models (most of the girls look the same to me) and the New Yorker.
