I used to buy magazine but three things killed it for me.

#1. No new content. I realize they can't tell people how to degree in a cam 1 time and expect everyone for the next 20 years to find and read that story form 20 years ago. some material just needs to be repeated for the new crowd but that is all they ever did. How about tossing in an article about something you have never done before. once a month.
#2 Cost. I continued to buy them for the pictures but eventually the cost wasn't worth it.
#3 I got too busy to read magazines. In this world of being overly busy I just didn't have time. If #1 hadn't been a problem I would have probably bought them and stockpiled them to read .... eventually.
