I subscribe to a couple automobile-related magazines. Tried digital editions, and they generally don't work well for me. Article continuity suffers compared to print, since a single article is often spread over several pages. And those several pages come with dozens of distracting links that attempt to take you away from the article you're trying to read.

Second, print magazines tend to have completely realized articles instead of quick one- or two-paragraph blurbs of "news" that essentially tell you to check back again and again to finally get the complete story.

I would, but they stopped all the Nintendo magazines I used to like...

I'll occasionally buy another gaming magazines (like Edge or PC Gamer) if going on a long train journey or similar, but I don't subscribe as I don't find them that interesting compared to the solely Nintendo focused ones I used to get.

I've never really been bothered about other types of magazines.
I had a Playboy subscription throughout most of my 20s. Also had a Game Informer subscription for a while. Both made for excellent bathroom reading. Like most of the modern world, I just bring my phone with me to the bathroom these days, haven't had a magazine subscription for probably 6 or 7 years now, maybe longer.

My mother gets the Weekly Standard.

It's great for when we run out of toilet paper.
Several years ago, I used to subscribe to a gaming magazine called Player1 (frequently written in katakana: プレーヤー1), the last issue I have is from November 2005.

I liked that they treated all platforms as fairly equal, unlike most (or all?) other gaming magazines I'd previously seen, and that they also included a little bit of older/retro games among all the contemporary releases, as well as some anime and manga.

It was pretty much all I wanted from a magazine (well, if they could somehow have included model trains, it would be all I wanted), and it didn't last very long at all.

I stopped buying magazines in the nineties, but mostly because they disappeared. At least the ones that I have been interested in. But to be honest, I don´t miss them much. They take up too much space, that I need for books. And you have to watch out for open fires...
Don't think I ever had one, but I would've love to have one for MAD magazine in the 90s.
Used to deliver magazines with my bicycle to people with subscriptions back in primary school though.
Used to, was a way to get demos and patches for the longest time.
Have no reason to bother anymore.
Not any more... I was an avid subscriber of the British magazine N64 Magazine and continued that through the NGC phase and the NGamer phase but eventually realised I wasn't reading it much any more.
Yes. Amiga World. But the latest issue is late.

Why would I want magazines? I have no interest in guns, and no interest in artillery or other tools of war.
