Does anyone else still read magazines? I do and have (or I guess had) a subscription to 5.0. I think the days of magazines are just about over.

Man a few of those have good youtube vids. Hopefully those will continue.

I was at a store the other day and ran by the magazine rack, it was 1/4 the size it used to be, stuffed in a corner.

Up until 5 years ago, there wasn't a shit taken without a magazine. Now I can't recall the last time I even looked at one.

The internet will kill off all printed media eventually.

Maxim is a must read in a full magazine. All others, no care.

The old lady got me a subscription to gm high tech for valentines. Guess I won't get anymore of them

[Rreemo]

Popular Hot Rodding used to be a good magazine, but after I met Johnny Hunkins in-person I pretty much cancelled that one out. The guy is a serious douche.

I just can't bring myself to spend $6+ for a magazine anymore off a newsstand. Dang, "Rod & Custom" is an OLD publication too.

They also killed off Rod & Custom. It was around in one form or another since 1953.

Shit.

[FastFox]

Guess I am screwed. I have taken Rod & Custom since the 60's. I also take 5.0 Mustang too. Oh well, NEXT !

Ya think we will get a refund check for un delivered but paid for issues ? Yeah, right.

[Venom]

I get 5.0 and MMFF. I read them when I take a shit or when I'm bored at drill. They make the time go by faster.

With the large availability of tablets, printable media should be out the door.

I keep wondering how long Playboy will hold on. They charge for online content, but the free things you can find just by hitting google destroys playboy.

I was a MM&FF subscriber for almost 20 years til their subs starting costing a pretty penny. I would buy again because I would rather read a magazine than a tablet.

Ive noticed over the past few years that they also skip a month or 2 occasionally and have 2 playmates in one mag. If it wasn't an annual gift I would have cancelled it along time ago.
