title: Can't review what I haven't received

text: I ordered my subscription in July. Here it is mid-September and I have not yet received one issue, and I'm wondering if I ever will. Other reviewers say it's a great magazine.  I'll have to take their word for it.  I'm a little miffed at how long it's taking to be delivered.


title: Love the magazine

text: I love the magazine.  I looked at it as a kid and so it has been fun to watch my step-sons look through the magazine.  I purchased the subscription when it was on discount.  I am not sure if I will renew when our year's subscription is up.  It will depend on the price.


title: Awesome gift!

text: I have bought this for the last 2 years for my nephew who reads 3 grade levels above  his age and he loves it! I'll be at loss as to what to do for him once in another year or two because this is so awesome for kid who loves to read! I personally think it's an amazing value for the money

title: Cut to the Chase, and Too Many Ads!

text:
I like history magazines, I'm a big National Geographic (and National Geographic History) subscriber, but this magazine is just too "flowery" for me.

Here's a couple of passages from the "Gladiator" article that demonstrate what I mean:

"Wolfgang Neubauer stands in the grassy clearing and watches a drone soar low over distand stands of birch and white poplar, the leaves still speckled with overnight rain. Vast fields of wheat roll away north and south under a huge dome of sky... ... ... On the edge of the meadow, two boys stand a long way apart, arms clenched by their sides, punting a soccer ball very slowly and carefully from one to the other. Neubauer studies them keenly..."

"Neubauer is 52- a bit thickening around the middle, a bit graying in the temples. A rumpled figure with hair parted down the middle and eyebrows like small hedges, he's a pioneer in remote sensing and geophysical prospection..."

See? Flowery.
I prefer National Geographic's style- tell it to me straight, don't take these random breaks in your article to tell me the guy is paunchy, TALK ABOUT THE GLADIATOR SCHOOL YOUR ARTICLE IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT. Every single article is like this (at least in this first issue I've seen). They spend forever describing people's eyelines and trying to sound poetic about it, but then they devote a disappointing half-paragraph to what you actually came to read about.

There's not much more to say about it than that. I could pull more examples from the magazine itself, but that'd probably test the limit of the review text box.

My other complaint, in the headline, was "Too Many Ads". It's frankly ridiculous. Page after page of advertisement- if you can't come up with enough content to fill the thing, then make it an every-other-month kind of deal instead. You're affiliated with the Smithsonian museums, for god's sake, is it that hard to come up with things to talk and teach about? It doesn't all have to be new discoveries, a feature piece on a few exhibits in different museums just to buff up the material would be better than yet another 2-page pharmaceutical ad. The ratio of articles to ads is truly appalling in this magazine.


title: Love it!

text: I love this periodical! It's so helpful to a non-handyman like myself.


title: Cant live without

text: Love beautiful magazine


title: This is a must have for every cooks library.

text: The best of the best cooking magazine. I love all of the science behind their recipes (the failures and the successes). I love that I can see back issues just for being a subscriber and I love that I can now shop with confidence when purchasing cookware and even ingredients for new to me dishes. I can’t think of one negative thing to say about this must have addition to every cooks library.


I have been buying this off the rack off and on for a few years. I love this magazine and it’s about time I subscribe.


title: Five Stars

text: Brother in law really likes this magazine.. Wish it was alittle cheaper.


title: If you’re thinking of living in an RV start here.

text: We love this magazine! We’re looking to retire to full time RV life. We’ve learned a lot from this.


After buying every issue in store for over a year, I've finally subscribed. This is one of my favorite magazines ever. I love that they share the qualifications of their experts in each issue. I also love that they take a product, like 100% whole wheat bread, and not only give some of their preferred buys, but tell you what attributes to look for or stay away from if you want to choose your own product. I've learned a lot about whole foods and the nutrients from different foods reading Clean Eating. It has been an excellent resource for someone who was completely new to eating clean and a bit overwhelmed. They also have a lot of recipes that I've used and loved.


title: Not worth it now

text:
I've been subscribed to this magazine for at least 4 years. I used to love it. The recipes were fairly easy to make, some adventurous and some classic, with ingredients I could find at the regular grocery store. There was always a leaflet with 50 or so various ways to make a recipe or use an ingredient and they were fun to try. Charts to use various ingredients to make a dish to my taste. I didn't mind the fluff of ads and food network stars in an almost 200 pg mag because I could still find plenty of things to try for myself and then for myself and my daughter when she came into my life. That was then...

Now I'm lucky if I get 100 pages in an issue. Mostly ads and pages about the stars. The recipes are unappealing and the ingredients aren't readily available. I hate to say pretentious, because it's Food Network, but perhaps there is a similar descriptive word. I found maybe 4 things to try, which I could have found for free browsing their website. I just received the grilling issue for June 2020. Under 100 pg, mostly meatless/seafood grilling (in which they tell you how to mask the taste of the food) and sides, a leaflet on 15 grilled pizzas, ads, how FN stars grill at home on their multiple grills or what they eat for a day or pictures from their Instagram of them out and about. If I wanted a glorified brochure on how Food Network stars live above the rest of us, I still wouldn't pay for it. They aren't really relatable anymore. And their recipes aren't good. There isn't even a regular recipe until page 35 out of 92 pages.

I know I could find recipes on the internet for free. I like magazines and this had been a fun one to look at and try things and pass it along to friends or family. They also enjoyed flipping through it. We could find things to try on a girl's night or a weeknight get together. I'm not even going to bother. The pictures were even unappetizing. I think I'll save some money and some trees and cancel my subscription.


title: Nice layout, but no depth

text:
The magazine is out-of-touch with pretty much everything they write about.  I subscribed to them for a year and the magazine had a patrician feel to it: I felt like I was talked down to – told what was cool, hip, and happening.

I mean, come on, an article about what to do with your excess cash and the person to direct it in the “right” places (tax write offs?), a column that encouraged the city's tourism department to court the so-called “tea party” for their tourism dollars (written by a guy who was prosecuted for looking at his co-worker's emails repeatedly – at a TV station!), a note from the publisher thumbing his nose at the Occupy Philly tent city at City Hall.  There was another tome about a Main Line housewife whose main claim to fame was that her husband knew some B-list socialites in the city and its suburbs.

This is standard stuff at this magazine.

A quick look at their advertisers speaks volumes: Places on Walnut Street between Broad and 19th Streets that us poor folk cannot afford (outside of McDonald's and Barnes and Noble) as well as the King of Prussia Mall and various boutiques on the Main Line.

Unlike the vast majority of the magazine's staff, I was born, raised, and live in the city and this magazine does not represent the real issues concerning and affecting this great city.

If you don't live on the Main Line, have a ton of money, and just aren't part of the mainstream (whatever is chic at the moment), then pass up this magazine.  - Donna Di Giacomo


title: The best of the women mags

text:
Of the myriad of womens' magazines on American newsstands, Good Housekeeping stands out for many reasons, the main one of which is that the products they endorse are backed up by a three-year (!) refund promise from the magazine should a consumer find the product defective in any way (as in the magazine's endorsement didn't match what the product really does).  I don't know of any other magazine that offers such a guarantee to the public.  Such sincerity and professionalism mean a lot in this day and age!

Also their recipes are triple-tested and they have the courtesy (and, again, professionalism) to let their readers know exactly how they go about testing recipes before they hit print. I can only imagine all the pots, pans, utensils, stoves, and ingredients - not to mention the time - that are used to try every recipe.  They remind me of the folks at America's Test Kitchen who do the same thing.  Anyone or any entity that takes that much time to perfect their product gets two enthusiastic thumbs up from me.

I also like the various features of Good Housekeeping: Ask Heloise, the cover stories (most of the time), and how to use and reuse household products creatively.  One feature I'm not thrilled about is the so-called "happiness" column.  I don't see what the writer is accomplishing and, truth be told, it's unrealistic (and not human) to be happy all the time.  Yes, it's okay to be sad and depressed.  That's what being human is all about.

One thing I do wish G.H. would cut down on are the articles about losing weight and how to "beat" aging.  Folks, how about the monthly articles touting how natural it is to age (and how none of us humans have a choice in the matter) or how being a little overweight is nothing to beat ourselves up about?  We can't all be model-thin, and the skinny and anorexic folks don't have perfect lives, either.  I expected *much* more from G.H. in those departments (and figure how much they can change the cultural attitude about aging in women and weight issues given their influence!).

In all, Good Housekeeping is the best of the magazine market for women.  I would like to see more features or coverage geared towards us folks in the city or who don't have families.  We like the magazine, too.  - Donna Di Giacomo


title: Just another boring woman's mag - no different from the rest

text:
After reading numerous issues of Woman's World, I realized I was just wasting my time reading a magazine that was no different from the pack (apart from the super-cheap price): How to organize everything on the planet, the latest fad "diet" that guarantees you will lose tons of inches and weight in relatively no time, how to look and feel younger (because, after all, aging is so unnatural), how to find so-called Mr. Right, ad nauseum.

I am amused by two things that crop up in nearly every issue: 1. The diet thing.  Without fail, Woman's World touts a diet that is "natural" and has been "proven" that should you follow it, you'll lose 15 lbs. in a week (so claimed a recent issue).  Unless you're starving yourself and eating laxatives for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, that is physiologically impossible, and no doctor worth their medical degree would endorse such a thing.

While the magazine touts such diets as well as the benefits of healthy eating (always a good thing), not a few pages later they have multiple recipes for high fat, high calorie desserts that contradict what they just preached about.  So what is the reader supposed to do - commit to healthy eating and then go bake up a rich dessert with prepared cake mix slop and then repeat the cycle?  WTF???

2. They pass a lot of junk science off as fact.  "Recent studies suggest..." "A new study supports the fact that ..." and other generalities would come under fire anywhere else (especially if the people touting it were natural healthcare advocates).  This happens much too often in their pages.  (When the FDA should be speaking up, they're always nowhere to be found.)  A recent issue also suggested that it's best to stay away from overweight friends as that somehow equates to eating more.  Again, the general "studies suggest" card was pulled, so best to stay away from those bad heavies (or, as the magazine backtracked itself in that same article, eat before you go out with those fat friends of yours to save yourself).

Their romantic fiction page is entirely too short and, 99% of the time, flat out sucks.  It's a lifeless feature as it is and surely women are submitting better stories than what is ultimately published.

On the positive side (yes, there is some of that here), I do like the guardian angel and the "Blessing in Disguise" features.  I also enjoy their "Smart Ways to Use ..." feature, but Good Housekeeping cornered that market many moons ago.

At $1.79, the price is attractive, but their feature articles bite into every stereotype about women as well as feed their every insecurity - from weight, to wanting to look and feel younger, to everything else.

I'd rather spend my money and time reading something more challenging and fulfilling.  A fan of Woman's World I am not.  - Donna Di Giacomo


title: It's ok ...

text:
Although the magazine is reasonably priced (at $2.79, it's one of the cheapest mags on the market), the content is primarily geared for middle of the road, suburban American housewives trying to save a second here and a second there.  I, as a single city gal, just gloss over all the articles dealing with children because I simply can't relate to the material.

The main reason why I bother with Woman's Day is for the recipes.  They have hits and misses, but the dishes I have clipped and saved in the past have turned out very tasty.  There are also interesting articles from time to time on various aspects of running a household, but, for real, much of what they feature is common sense.

My biggest gripe with this magazine is the number of drug ads.  For the May 4, 2008 issue alone, there were 14 drug ads (one of which was a drug specifically for children!) - all of which were placed in the front of the magazine and were two pages long on average (one ad was three pages).  Surely, there must be better ad revenue to tap into for American magazines.  It was *very* annoying to be reading an article and have to skip over two pages because of said ads.

Woman's Day is on the level with Good Housekeeping and like magazines - interesting articles from time to time, but better off read at the library.  - Donna Di Giacomo


title: Informative magazine

text:
In all, I enjoy Family Tree Magazine as it is chock-full of interesting stories, tidbits and helpful tips for your genealogy research - some of which are very creative and will help you further along in your genealogical quest.

My only gripe (and it's one that keeps me from regularly patronizing the magazine) is that the vast majority of their articles (I'd say a good 98%) focus on people whose ancestors were from the British Isles and Germany.  While I realize the sheer number of those people compose the majority of the American population (for now), it leaves me, as a reader, feeling left out in the cold because I don't share that ancestry.

Useful tips can be carried over to whatever country your ancestors emigrated from but there are an increasing amount of people researching (or who would like to research) Southern and Eastern European ancestry so why not include us (no matter how scant the records may be?).

In all, though, Family Tree Magazine is an enjoyable and informative read and contains articles worth saving in every issue.  - Donna Di Giacomo


title: Moldy, wrinkled, and old

Interesting, Up to Date, Easy to Read

Subscribed years ago, got busy, ........ life happened..........then I saw it on the newsstand and bought a couple copies - YIKESSS!!  the price was not to my liking........so I decided to subscribe again and found this deal.  I'm happy!


title: Good Deal, Good Human Interest

text: Good Deal, Good Human Interest stories, it's Reader's Digest.  This was a great deal so I went for it!  I've been reading it since I was a little kid and I still enjoy it.


title: Waste of money

text: All you is filled with advertisements, if thats what you want.  Very little in terms of actual substance.  Their secrets and tips are usually in reference to certain products and services to buy.  I've had this subscription for 6 months and haven't used more than 1 coupon contained in the mag. I would say this magazine is "nice" and "average"; Not much changes from issue to issue.  I enjoyed the first magazines, but now its just rehashing the same information and changing it per holiday or season. July - Try X Generic grilling recipe in summer, try bland soup for fall, and add bacon.  I will not renew this subscription when it runs out.


title: Do NOT subscribe to this magazine

text:
I let my original subscription run out without renewing, ignoring their numerous requests to sign up for another year. The publisher, Werner Publishing, sent my account to a collection agency, despite the fact that I had not purchased anything, nor said that I would renew the subscription. They sent me a threatening letter saying they were trying to collect a debt, and that "full payment is expected." When I called the agency, they even had a phone menu option for stating that you never renewed the magazine, showing clearly that this is a well-known, standardized process.

This tactic of harassing people and frightening them into coughing up  $14.97 for a magazine renewal is unconscionable. They need to be held accountable for using this scare technique as part of their regular business practice. This publisher also publishes such magazines as PC Photo and Digital Photo Pro. At a minimum, they caused me to waste a fair amount of my time correcting the problem.

It's a shame, too, because the magazine is well-written, has great photography, and decent equipmnent reviews. Some outstanding photographers write here. However, their efforts are ruined by their terrible publisher. Do not support these harassment tactics. For a mere $14.97, they've permanently lost a customer, and I hope others as well.


title: If I could only have ONE magazine, this would be it.

text:
I've been reading Good Housekeeping since I was a child. I subscribe to tons of magazines (way more than I should!) and out of all of them, this is the one I wouldn't give up.

They cover such a wide range of topics that I feel it would appeal to most any woman.

title: A Whole Lot of Fun!

text: I admit I eat healthier than most of the recipes in this magazine but that’s not why I watch Food Network either. It’s entertainment, and for entertainment value I love this magazine!


title: They should use a better quality paper for their magazine

text: I like the magazine; I wish the quality of the paper was better. It's kind of hard to get into the photos in the articles because of the inferior paper quality.

title: Excellent guitar magazine

text: Excellent Guitar magazine. The articles aren't long and boring. Great coverage on equipment, guitars, amps, pedals etc. The only down side (which isn't worth downgrading the 5 star rating) is it's not shipped in a plastic protective cover.  I haven't subscribed to a guitar magazine in eight years. I found one that's worth it !!


title: Great Magazine

text:
Always a winner with this magazine.  The fact that Amazon has offered a special price for a subscription is wonderful and ensures that I will continue to keep reading a magazine that has a lot to offer in a world where there is less and less content provided.

The ability to download and read the magazine on my Ipad as part of my subscription is an added plus.

Great magazine on pars with Economist magazine in some sense.  There's a lot of deep coverage on issues, but the magazine designer is on a 3rd grade level and the fonts are way to small for the average executive.

So, increase the font size, add a few more pages and get a new graphic designer and the magazine would be perfect


title: Awesome

text: I bought this magazine for a prisoner. He's mixed up with the gangs and they are all anti-left and nationalists as you may imagine. This mag has great investigative articles that hopefully will open his eyes. He has nothing else to do, nothing else to read so he's a captive audience. Hoping to help the boy with this publication


title: Real Simple... Real Life!

text:
I received my first issue the other day. It is so much nicer getting the magazine delivered to my home rather than picking it up at the grocery store.

It is filled with great ideas and articles and can do one of two things.  Encourage you to be more organized or really send you to the deepest place where you look around and realize you have way to much junk in your home and are inspired to purge like a mad woman!


title: Whether You Hunt or Fish, You'll Do Better Because Of This Magazine... And it's Inexpensive. Pretty Cool, Huh?

text:
If you fish or hunt in the Midwest US, for as little as this costs, and the volume of tips, tricks and good info it has...you have to buy it. If your hunting and fishing friends find out that you looked at this and didn't buy it...they are going to point at you and laugh (rightfully so).
If your outdoorsman friends have never seen this magazine and you keep referencing it in conversation, (and you will, trust me, you will), and you're outfishing them 10-to-1, just give them one of your copies to look through. They will bow before your feet for introducing them to it. You will become the coolest person they've ever known. They'll ask you to autograph the first copy they get in the mail when they subscribe (and they will, trust me, they will), but best of all, the next time you guys go out for beer, they'll probably buy for you all night.
Although, you may enjoy out-fishing them 10-to-1 so you don't tell them about it. You won't get the accolades, they won't ask for your autograph, they'll be mean and spiteful because because you make them look bad, they'll be completely jealous of you...but that may be better than a night night of free beer for you. I totally understand that! ;)

text: I ordered this magazine thru Amazon.com on May 15th. They confirmed that it would arrive before July 31, 2013. Of course a little 8-year old was waiting and waiting. It in fact was never shipped. Since it was a gift, how would I know in this age of no thank you notes. Emailed to see if she was enjoying the magazine, only to learn of her disappointment. Amazon uses an unreliable magazine service. Best to pay a few extra bucks and order directly from American Girl.

text: Strangely, 2 arrived at the same time - I subscribed in early January and received, at the end of the month, both the January and February issues. Hey, can't complain - gotta love National Geographic. It seems like other subscribers through Amazon have had some bad experiences, but no complaints here. Looking forward to perusing through the beautiful images and expanding my perspective.


title: RENEW SUBSCRIPTION POLICY DOESN'T WORK

text: I love the magazine.  However,  I have received duplicate issues since I ordered it: one from an old subscription and one from the Amazon subscription.  This was even though I had followed Amazon's instructions about renewing subscriptions which states:  "You can renew any subscription, even if it wasn't originally purchased from Amazon. Just make sure the name and address you enter match exactly the name and address on the mailing label for your magazine subscription. This will let the publisher know that this is a renewal order."  I did provide exactly that and apparently it was ignored.

title: SUPPOSED TO BE A CONTINUATION OF MY CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION

text: I re-ordered this SL subscription which is supposed to continue my current subscription as explained to me in the offering.  After ordering (less than half hour ago), I see my first issue will arrive around December 5th.  My current subscription doesn't expire until February 2021.  Seeing that I will receive about 3 months on overlapping, I attempted to cancel.  Just got the email letting me know that I couldn't cancel.  WHAT A RIP OFF!!<br />NO more subscriptions for me!

The only annoyance is I have to make sure I save the digital copies or risk losing them after a year. I hope Amazon keeps offering thus deal as it is perfect for my needs.


title: Great recipes

text: I love this magazine.


title: The reader has to remember that the TOH magazine is ...

text: The reader has to remember that the TOH magazine is designed to act as an adjunct to the televised PBS series, not a replacement. The magazine format is driven by the TV series and, as such, is not intended to be a free-standing entity.


title: usually lots of fun

text: have yet to receive first issue..but in the past its been okay..that's why i subscribed to it..when will first issue arrive?..subscribed in early feb.


title: Bought this for a friend for her birthday.  "Best birthday present I've ever received," she said

text: I bought a magazine subscription of Cooks Illustrated for a friend who is an excellent cook and loves to create new recipes.  Her husband told me that she liked looking at these magazines and that it would be a perfect birthday gift for her.  I bought it for her and he was right.  The illustrations and recipes are wonderful.

text: Great gift!


title: Thought provoking

text: The best review I can give is that the title says it all.  A nice mix of both genres.  I find each issue offers thought provoking stories, and isn’t that what reading is really about?


One of the few magazines I subscribe to.  If you like Alaska, you will enjoy this magazine.  Lots of good stories and interesting advertisements.


title: Good support for Reiki practice

text: This magazine has great articles, lets me know what's going on with Reiki and keeps me on track with my own practice.


title: Reminisce

text: I enjoy the magazine because I'm old enough to remember a lot of these things. My problem is that I need larger print for my eyes sake

title: Review of All You

text: I love this magazine.  The articles are short and easy to read when you do not have a lot of time.  The magazine pays for itself with all the coupons.  I am getting a copy for my daughter and daughter in law.


title: Five Stars

text: favorite mag.  thanks


title: love the magazine.... but

text: We have enjoyed this magazine for a few years now. The only problem is that we never know when we are going to get it.  Is there anyway we can pay extra for it to be sent first class, instead of 2nd class? But love the puzzles/quizzes and ready the latest on the "running from paparazzi group". Keep it coming.


title: Five Stars

text: A necessity in these times


title: Not the same In Style

text: I used to enjoy this magazine but not anymore. The articles are of no interest and it’s become so over the top PC

title: Five Stars

text: GREAT gift idea for seniors in their 70's and 80's +.


title: Not Sure

text: Great magazine articles, but poor customer care if missed issues.


title: Incredible magazine at an incredible rate

text: One of the greatest tech and science magazines around. Interesting articles to read, even when we are bombarded with instant articles from news sources online 24/7, you know you can trust what Popular Science publishes.


title: OK mag

text: Subscribed years ago, gonna give it another chance.


title: Taste of the South

text: Taste of the South is a well written out publication with pictures and ads for those that enjoy Southern Comfort Food. A lot of good recipes and stories to keep everyone informed and entertained. Magazine is well worth the subscription price.


title: Exactly what I was looking for

text: on time each and every month I purchase this magazine for my 90 year old mother-in-law and she absolutely loves it I had it sent directly to her in the assisted-living which is very convenient

text: but this magazine as a gift for my mother-in-law which is in an assisted living she absolutely loves it and it's well worth the money


title: As expected

text: Bought this magazine for my mother-in-law and she absolutely loves it


title: Informative, great images and showed up early !

text: Was a Xmas gift for granddaughter(8+) and she loves it, so that makes grandpa happy. Informative reading at a level they can understand with a little help from a adult, which is how it should be. 😉

text: Excellent reading


title: LOVE LOVE LOVE

text: LOVE this magazine. Lots of color and down-to-earth ideas that wow.

title: Entertaining and informative read for your home!

text: I like the subjects that magazine that have for me to read and some good ideas for the home.I created a cozy sleeping spot  in the living room that was a idea one month from the magazine .<br />Best thing ever and no sofabed!

title: COLLECTORS GUIDE

text: The Maine Antique Digest is a must have for anyone interested in antiques and art .. I have read it for years .. gives me an idea of what to look for an hopefully find.  You won't regret reading this every month.


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine. It's full of great ideas.


title: The best country living magazine I'v ever found

text: We just re-subscribed to our third year of Country Living and enjoy it far more than anything that is produced on the subject state-side. Wonderful articles and photos with scads of interesting recipes. Worth picking up at the newstand to ascertain if it's for you.


title: Five Stars

text: Thanks !


title: not worth it

text: Took almost 2 months for the first issue to arrive, and despite the name, it's actually monthly now, not weekly.


title: Five Stars

text: excellent magazine


title: Low price and convenient subscription.

text: The Amazon people let me know that the auto renewal could be canceled from their website as soon as the order completed and was posted to my account.  These magazines are meant as a gift to a Veterans Hospital so I don't have to feel guilty about keeping track of their tips and reporting them on my taxes.  Now there is no worry about them being "auto renewed" at the regular retail price after the yearlong subscription has expired.

text: enjoying the magazine


title: Five Stars

text: have enjoyed the magazine


title: Feeling Like I Need to Pay A Stamp Tax

text: After a few years I have finally become too irritated to continue my subscription due to the late delivery. Not that I would fly to England for any of the events, but reading about classes I cannot sign up for, trips that I'm cannot take, and so on is a bit too heavy on the "late current events" side of things.  Getting a magazine that was on the newsstands in Great Britain 4-6 weeks ago is a bit much.  There is an occasional photo that makes it almost seem worthwhile, but I think I'll go with digital or cancellation.


title: Awesome Magazine

text: This magazine has a lot of awesome content within its pages.  Definitely worth the price.  I knew my mom would love this magazine since its one of the magazines she would check out from the library.


title: Disappointed

text:
I have been getting Az Highways mag on and off over the past 30+ years. I subscribed again last year. I see that the quality has gone way down.

Too bad.


title: Packed with information

text: The issue has more information and ideas than you can absorb in a month, which is why I've gone with the hard copy rather than digital.


title: Popular Science

text: This is a great magazine.  It is full of useful information on current products and great articles on various science topics.


title: Good read

text: Good magazine. I’m an armchair mountaineer but I enjoy the excellent articles and photographs. Well worth the small price.


title: A Good Investment

text: As someone who is trying to learn Spanish, I am always looking for some good materials to practice with.  This is perfect!  They have very interesting articles (I think it is less 'fluffy' than the English version) and everything is in Spanish!  They focus on Hispanic celebrities (from the U.S. and from other countries) and they focus more on family than beauty.  They also review books, movies and television, which I really enjoy reading.  One major difference between this and the English version is that People en Español only comes out once a month, whereas the English version comes out every week.  Actually, there are only 11 issues per year, because they always combine December and January.  Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and can't wait to improve my Spanish!


title: Two Stars

text: wasted my money on this.


title: This is a good magazine once more

text:
I have been reading Reader's  Digest for 30 years or more . About two or three years ago ( maybe more ) the magazine went
down hill . I stopped it twice because most of the articles were terrible and not well written, the jokes were not funny , in short, it
was not a good magazine anymore . Then last year sometime, I don't know just when , it completely changed and became
a good magazine again . The articles are really good and informative . I don't know who changed it but I love you .

Red


This magazine is FANTASTIC!  The recipes are great...beautifully photographed...a family favorite!  My husband looks through and selects new recipes he wants us to try.


title: who couldn't LOVE this mag?

text: Cleaver ideas, fun, folksy chats on all kinds of product or projects.  Honestly I get it just to do some dreaming of little honey do's that I have to do the hubby is NOT handy.


title: Great mag!

text: Always was asking my dentist for her old ones & broke down & bought a subscription.  I'm really pleased with the content & BEAUTIFUL photo's of wildlife


title: This is NOT as good as it used to be

text: This is NOT as good as it used to be.  I'd gotten it years ago & loved to curl up with it & admire how people had put rooms together, this is soooooo boring.  I look & pitch, not even worth passing it along to friends.  So disappointed.


title: This magazine is alive & well!

text:
The people who gave it one star didn't bother to look up on line that this GREAT mag is still in business.
I think it is the best & rip most the paintings out to use as references
A ++


title: sorry, for me this lacks luster.

text: I like getting art mags to see what is the trend in the art world how to keep my work current & diverse & just enjoy really great work.  FOR ME... this mag does not deliver.  Little to no variation, not one painting I found to be really memorable, I will not get it again.  You might want to go to an art store/ the library & look for your self before sinking any money into this one.


title: If your buying this magazine for wonderful pictures of animals... don't bother.

text: I have to admit I have not read even one article, I wanted wonderful pictures of the animals they are shooting.  Yes I do understand that this wasn't the intention of the writers, but one would hope they could do more than chat about their experiences & do a little shooting with the camra as well.  for this reason I give it a big fat zero.


title: WIFE LOVES IT

title: Daymond John: Getting lt Done.

text: I definitely enjoyed my second issue of INC Magazine, as l watch and enjoy Daymond John on Shark Tank on CNBC-TV. The interview was thorough and well done. Thank you.


title: Not as good as it use to be

text: This use to be one of my favorite magazines.  :(


title: Five Stars

text: Great Magazine!


title: I've seen this and would not buy it.

text: Uh oh, someone is going to be offended:  I bought a copy and also saw it in a few other places--like the long term care center where I was a volunteer for several years.  This has no in-depth stories or look-behind-the-scenes stories.  Quite frankly, it is a simple, superficial, memory-trigger for (ahem) elderly people, especially those with uh, cognitive issues.


title: Five Stars

text: This was a gift subscription for someone else.


title: Still waiting

text: I haven't received my first issue yet but I saw a copy and it'll do.I just wish they had daytime listings

Not running much anymore due to hip problems, but this was a fun magazine to read when I was running for exercise


title: what happened to this mag?

text: 80 pages of ads and only a few with advice, stories, reviews, or actual photography worth looking at.


title: Great gift for moms

text: My mom loves her subscription


title: AS EXPECTED

text: Always liked this magazine.Too many ads but otherwise perfect for the average or advanced user.


title: Five Stars

text: Recommend subscribing if you're a golf fanatic.


title: Five Stars

text: Love recipes and this magazine


title: Hasn't changed much in years. Perfect for me.

text: Brings back "old times". When I'm tired, this is perfect. Short topics, interesting and still has the "laughs" it used to have. IF you are a big reader who doesn't fall asleep while reading, a book would probably be better for you. This is a combination of a magazine and short stories and some health tips, etc....<br />I used to get it years ago and still like it.


title: Great reading well worth the  price.

text: Great reading. Interesting articals.


title: Good read!

text: Love the recipes! Love the read ! It's just a great magazine.

title: Horrible Threatening Magazine

text: I have been a Marie Claire subscriber for several years on automatic subscription.  Now I subscribe to a dozen different magazines and decided to stop subscribing to Marie Claire because their perfumed magazine aggravates my asthma.  So far I have received a dozen threatening emails and letters from Marie Claire trying to force me to subscribe to their magazine!  How rude!  Avoid this horrible magazine who threatens their subscribers and harasses them.  Terrible customer service!  I am boycotting Marie Claire!


title: Good magazine

text: It's a very interesting magazine for any car enthusiast.


title: Great for beginners

text: Very informative. I like the exercises included.


title: Animal Lovers Delight all year long!

text: My daughter received this for her 10th birthday and again for her 11th.  She wants to be a veterinarian but now is thinking of being a zoologist.  She loves reading all about the animals and learning new things.


title: I like reading all the articles

text: We are TV buffs and like reading about our favorite shows.  I've been getting TV guide for years.  Thank you!


title: False advertising

text: I did not order through Amazon, but beware if you receive ads that say you will get extra issues or booklets or fleece throws. My check cleared and the magazine did arrive but nothing else.  Just a warning also that the magazine if more than 50% advertising.  I would give 0 stars - sorry


title: Great Price

text: Great price on TV Guide subscription.  And there were no issues with using Amazon to extend my current subscription that I had previously done directly via TV Guide.


title: Health Information

text: This is nice magazine for people with a modern style. Good read if you want to keep up with modern trends in both design and building.


title: Fun Read

text: This is a fun magazine. It is filled with entertaining articles. Great for DIY people. Not really a magazine for Interior Designers.


title: Very nicely done for home cooks

text: This cookery magazine is very nicely done. I appreciate the picture with every recipe and the hints. They also include side dishes for the main dishes. I have been buying this at news stands to check it out before committing and I now order by subscription.


GREAT! This is the best for any lover of  history. Studied the subject in college and really missed at good magazine that is all history. This one also includes historical subjects outside the British realm. Well researched, well written and much enjoyed.

title: For Irish and History Lovers

text: I love this mag. It has wonderful articles that go deep into the subject not fluff pieces. Anyone who is into Ireland and history will enjoy this mag.


Anyone who likes home projects would do well to have a subscription to this magazine. Always lots of ideas to make your home run better.


title: Top Italian magazine

text: My wufe has bought this magazine for manu years, but since we do not live in Italy rnd its import has stopped we have now, witj Amazon's help, succesfully made a run around the end to my wife's contetment.


title: PERFECT GIFT

text: I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY HUSBAND FOR FATHER'S DAY AND HE LOVES IT.  I ALSO READ SOME ARTICLES IN THE MAGAZINE AND AM VERY IMPRESSED.


title: Half the size of the magazine we took years ago,

text: I am disappointed in this magazine. It's of little value. It's mostly ads for products, you glance through it in 5 minutes.


title: Five Stars

text: Brother in law loves this subscription


title: A brief time delay

text: Glad I finally got it last week!


title: Time delay

text: Like all my others sometime in June!


title: Time delay!

text: Sometime in June it should get here.  I really wanted it before the draft!


title: A helpful resource for current entertainment

text: The best thing about this weekly is the attention it brings to new books, movies, and TV shows - helps me catch things I might have missed.


title: Not happy

text: Received in bad shape looks like it was in a read over and over. Has pages torn. If I want a used magazine. I would have gone to the library. Not wrapped in plastic


title: Great magazine

text: I have gotten mother earth news for many years. A lot of good info.


title: Four Stars

text: I would not order again but it's a nice mag


title: More than good; its great.

text: YES, yes and yes.  I am so happy that I ordered it.  This month the articles on the Antarctic are wonderful.  My son spent four years as station manager at th  McMurdo station so I will have to share it with him.


title: Great magazine for runners

text: I saw a lot of reviews complaining that their subscriptions took a long time to begin.  Mine was prompt and very easy to start with Amazon.  I'm very happy.


title: Five Stars

text: this is a renewal, my mother loves it


title: Eh.

text: I past my twenties,so I don't get much out of it.  Looking at the fashions is a bit interesting, but<br />I'm not open to spending $900 for a pair of shoes.  It's fleas with not much substance.

text: from Mrs C: I love this magazine. I get it for myself and dau-in-law.


title: Reader's Digest

text: We enjoy this magazine as it is small, and I can tuck it in my purse<br />for when I have to wait for something.  It is newsy and I love the jokes.!


title: Great for Ads

text: All ads. Articles are worthless. There is more info available online.


title: Great magazine lots of information

text: One of my favorite magazines. Very informative and always learn something when I sit down with a copy. Little miffed they sent it to the wrong address though. I had hoped to have it delivered to my mother's as a present.


title: Good Magazine for History Buffs or the WWII Veterans Out There

text: I love history, and so after I read this I pass it on to my 92 year old father who was in WWII.


title: Love Time!

text: Time Magazine is great.  We've taken it for years, and still look forward to it each week.  And where else could I read The Awesome Column by Joel Stein?


title: gift for my mom

text: and she LOVES this - LOVES it, will re=order when subscription runs out


title: pros and cons

text: I've been a subscriber for several years now.  I was trying to decide between maxim and stuff.  I chose maxim because the info is very random and entertaining (i.e. how to do doughnuts in your car, ect.)  They do have some photos of actors and such, but many were of people from other countries and just other pretty girls you may have never heard of... I would suggest this magazine.


I had subscribed for years, but lately the entire magazine has a definite political bend.  For example latest issue alone,  Article titled "Insane amount millionaires say they need to be happy" ... one section sums up "millionaires" attitude that "more is better" and "Respondents with at least 8 million scored higher than sad sacks with 7.9 million or less.

Article on women that do not invest as much or differently then men, ok.  But leaves a full few pages on the gender pay gap and how "real" it is despite some questionable evidence.

Later in the same edition with a table  of how the tax cuts will affect you.....one column reads "Professional couple" and puts income at $135K, next column is labeled "Wealthy business owner" $250K.

Subtle.....am I reading into it, probably, but once my sub is over I will only keep Kiplinger.


title: Enjoyable

text: I used to subscribe back in my younger days and the magazine remains enjoyable. It is actually a bit surprising the writing is so strong considering it is a motor magazine but the writers are all very good. My only small complaint is that some issues have less interesting for me content then ideal but that is a small complaint


title: It still has value for me

text: Read this as a kid and young adult.  Brings back memories.


title: Great read.

text: Love it.


title: Great magazine

text: I Love Crochet World!  You can always find fun patterns.  I enjoy getting it and just looking!


title: No longer a biweekly publication a once ever month!!!

text: This product description is wrong! One year is only 16 issues now! This is false advertising and a rip off!! I didn't even get credit for the lost issues, either! I paid for one year 39 issues only to find out when I called to see why I haven't received a issue in a month that they are not even putting out a issue for January!! Went from biweekly to once ever other month!! RIP OFF!!

title: Woke Trash

text: The entire magazine features almost nothing except African American women and adds. Equal representation is not in this magazine.  If I wanted Ebony magazine, I would have bought it.  I got a free subscription and I certainly won’t be paying for a subscription.


title: BACKPACKER

text: My husband loves to hike. This magazine is great with all the info you will need. The articles are all interesting.

text: Living in Sunny SO Cal I get to fish quite a bit during the summer months and get great tips from this magazine that isn't focused totally on either east or west coasts. It gives sound advice with plenty of interesting articles. I've renewed 2x already and am hooked (no pun intended). Great product reviews as well.

title: if your a bird nerd this is the a mag for you.

text:
coming from a household that had birds this might be a biased review but I really like this magazine.  we use to get bird talk but that went out of publication.  this is a great alternative, it deals with wildlife and every edition is packed full of fun and interesting information.

if you love animals birds and wildlife this is a magazine you should keep it coming to your inbox


title: Expand knowledge base

text:
Jordan harbinger suggested one way to expand your knowledge base is to subscribe to a magazine on a subject you know nothing about and read it cover to cover for a long while.
I love this idea, so I’m trying it out.
 I’m new to backpacking and I figured this is a good way to learn more.
I’m a Happy camper with this product.

text: I love this mag, but their customer service is AWFUL. I tried to renew online. Site did not RECOGNIZE my ( their )acct. number.I wrote customer service saying this.They wrote back giving me my account number and telling me to renew online!!! After going all over, I finally found a page with my name and acct. number. It said " I was not eligible to renew! WHAT? They don't WANT my business? On another page,I see some deals that are either auto renew at a future mystery price...( NO THANKS) and others that just don't make sense. I simply don't trust them.  I AM AFRAID TO RENEW now! These people are crazy.

title: Why subscribe? They email you tips (spam) almost everyday

text: ...but they are mostly useless tips or ads. After 2 years of subscribing I will not renew.


title: Awful - full of the worst kind of ads

text: This "magazine" is a thinly veiled excuse to sell ads for the worst possible products for kids -- sugary junk food and cereals, videogames and the latest big budget product-pushing movies. The National Geographic Society should be deeply ashamed of itself. If you want a good magazine for kids this age WITHOUT ads, try "Kids Discover."


title: Excellent

text: Excellent


title: Ignore the glowing reviews from 10 years ago - this is just an advertisement book with the occasional clip of content tossed in.

text:
Amazon really needs to cycle through it's highest rated reviews every few years. Maybe this magazine was great back in the early 2000's, but today is it nothing more than a advertisement rag posing as a DIY magazine.

I have received 2 issues and other than the cover article, it seems everything else is a tiny little blurb amidst a sea of other party ads. There is very, very little substance or instruction to be had. I would much rather pay you are higher price subscription for more content and less ads, than the current model that Handyman currently has.

I'll look elsewhere for my DIY interests.

title: Makes me want to hit the Road!

text: Great magazine with the outstanding photography that National Geographic is known.  This came quickly and now my bucket list is growing!


title: Very good but has a lean to the left

text: Leans left which bothers me but it's subtle and I can get the good info and pass off the left leaning garbage. The articles are very interesting and the one on ADDICTION was excellent. It was very clear that kids with electronics are going to fail in life and I've suspected that for years. So buy this and just read the articles (they are long and in depth) and forget the baloney!


title: I'm really torn about this whole HGTV thing...

text:
I love a couple of shows on HGTV and watch almost all of them; sometimes twice. However,
since the brass at that company pulled a show JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A CHRISTIAN
FAITH MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL!!! I couldn't believe it. The Duck Dynasty (a silly show with
Christian overtones) was salvaged by angry viewers and/or angry Christians, but not a
peep for these two guys that would have given HGTV a better all-round programming...I
don't get it.

title: Should be "Modern artists"

text: Hmm, where to begin. I did like the magazine a lot 5 years ago, now it seems filled with more non painters. Kind of repetative, would be better only 4 times/ year. There's someting missing lately.. good art? I noticed when I looked at a issue in the beginning of the year and one at the end, it's kind of similar.


title: OVERLY GLOSSY YET STILL EFFECTIVE

text:
I remember cleary back in November 1995 when I got my first issue of VIBE in the mail.It was the December 1995/January 1996
issue with Whitney Houston on the cover.I was loving this magazine.Yes it was a lot like an "urban Rolling Stone" but it was smart,hip,diverse,and intriging.Founded by Quincy Jones in 1993,VIBE has been a more stylish,hipper alternative to the more street,keep-it-real The Source and it has succeed.
From that Whitney Houston issue to this day,I've been an avid reader of VIBE,it's my first-choice music magazine.It especially
thirved when Danyel Smith became the Editor In Cheif from November 1997 to November 1999 as it became even more wordly and intriguing.Not to mention,the stunning photos and informative aricles,helpful reviews,and political columns but then VIBE got a little soft on me when former fashion editor Emil Wilibekin became the Editor In Chief.As Wilibekin became the E-I-C,VIBE has become very glossy and prissy.Very woman-friendly and gay-friendly(that's not necessaraly a bad thing though).With glossy fashion spreads galore and a just overall
prissy vibe(no pun intended).That turns me off.I also don't care how the Revolutions(the review section) is so skimed down and less informative.VIBE is one of the main reasons I became a reviewer on Amazon.com,their reviews used to be honest and well-intended but these days they aren't so effective anymore and not that many big hip hop releases are even reviewed anymore(which is good in a way since it's helping the readers discover more
less well-known,adventrous sounds).
Even with it's in it's overly slick state these days,VIBE is still the best music magazine on the market.XXL may be more down and more informative and The Source may be righteous,and the promising Blender may be more music-guided but VIBE will always the first-choice music magazine for me for like Mr. Knyte said
it inspired me to take my dreams of journalism(especially music journalism) higher and for now,seven years it's lifted my sprits
and always kept me intrigued.


title: One of the better conservative publications

text: Along with National Review, the Weekly Standard is one of the most popular and influential conservative magazines out there.  While it tends to promote the same issues of NR (and even uses many of the same writers), the Weekly Standard tends to be the more partisan of the two.  While NR often takes the more intellectual approach to the modern day issues, the Weekly Standard has always tended to go more for the gut.  Both magazines, however, do an outstanding job promoting and defending conservative positions and, as a bonus, both can be wickedly funny.  I especially enjoy the Weekly Standard's Scrapbook, a regular column where some of the more bizarre and inane actions of the left are given proper exposure.  As well, the Weekly Standard's book and movie reviews are, at times, superior even to National Review's.  As a magazine, the Weekly Standard is a must for conservatives and will probably be enjoyed by moderates (and perhaps even open-minded liberals) with a sense of humor.  As for those you who are still bemoaning the results of the Florida recount and wishing Clinton could have had a third term -- well, I think Mother Jones is still looking for subscribers...

title: Cheaper to subscribe directly from publisher

text: I love this magazine.  Have it set up on auto-renew.  Darned if it isn't $2 less to just use one of the blow in cards to subscribe.


title: Black and White Pictures, No Color, Most expensive magazine in America.

text: Let me start out by saying I am a huge fan of Cooks Country and America's Test Kitchen. I am very disappointed in this magazine because it is in black and white. For being the most expensive magazine in America, you would think they could afford to have color. I feel as tho they company cheaped out on the color in order to make an extra buck, which saddens me. I would not recommend this magazine for this reason. Why not print the cover in black and white too? Oh, because it would look crappy? Ok, so why print the inside pages in black and white then?


title: A long-lost friend

text: I got this for my son but could not put the back issues down. I got a sub for myself now. I have been an Atlantic subscriber for decades but Harpers is much better IMHO.


title: Backpacker Awards EVERYONE a Participation Trophy

text: Useless magazine!  Backpacker used to give pretty good gear reviews, but so that they can pander to all of the companies who advertise with them, they no longer give a critical review of products.  Instead, when rating backpacks now for example, they'll rate the Best Pack for Breathability, Best for Weight Distribution, Best for Weight Balance, etc. and therefore no one's the loser.  It's just like "everyone gets a participation trophy" with Backpacker.  What BS Backpacker, don't you think your readers are smart enough to realize that your magazine has just turned in to one big advertisement!


title: Internet integrated version no longer available

text: I have been a subscriber for many years. I was so happy when they began to send out issues integrated with the Internet. I could click on imbedded links to navigate to  other parts of the magazine. It had imbedded videos showing how to cook the associated recipe. It was a much more enjoyable to read. They say because of Covid they had to change to a PDF version of the magazine. There are no embedded links to go thru the magazine or connect to the web. Instead, they include a printed QR code which your camera reads and supposedly sends you to their website with the video. However, when you go to the website you have to sign in. At first, I didn’t know what credentials to use to get in and was locked out. I had to call customer service and they got me in a few months ago saying the video had to be loaded on the web site for several days before magazine subscribers could see it. I tried waiting in the following months: but, never was able to get in. I can’t wait till they return to the Internet enabled version of the magazine. Till then, I would recommend that no one subscribe!


title: My favorite magazine

text: This is a great "did you know magazine?". Every issue is great fun with interesting stories. I like it better than National Geographic.


title: Very pretty. An Arty magazine.

text: This is a pretty magazine but I won't be renewing the subscription. This would be a good magazine for trained artists who take their stuff to art shows and art galleries. I do mosaics and sell my stuff at craft shows and online. I didn't find much that interested me.


title: Great for Texans and Tourists

text: This magazine provides good information about Texas, the parks, and the wildlife that lives in Texas and along our coasts. These magazines are keepers as the information inside never goes out of style. Highly recommend .


title: Great magazine

text: I enjoy the tv shows and I enjoy this also.


title: Good Housekeeping is a great magazine

text:
I've subscribed to Good Housekeeping for a while now and really like this magazine.  I took the opportunity to renew the subscription through Amazon.com for a couple of reasons:

1.  I trust Amazon.com - they stand behind what they do.
2.  This was the best rate in town, bar none, that I could find.

I received a promotional E-mail "two for one" in that you could subscribe to a magazine, pay for one year at a discounted rate and the magazine was renewed for two years!  Can't be beat!


title: Buy/renew subscriptions through Amazon

text: I received a renewal from Oprah Magazine and the cost for renewal was pretty steep.  I recently received an E-mail from Amazon for a 2 years for the price of one at a lower overall rate.  I was careful in entering my name and address when renewing my subscription, exactly as it was on my magazine sticker and VOILA - magazine renewed for two years at a very good rate.  Times are tough and every penny counts.  Good job Amazon!


title: Better Homes and Gardens

text: I subscribed to BH&G for many years.  When we moved cross country, I canceled the subscription.  Now I've been in NC for four years and thought I'd try a new subscription to BH&G.  It's a nice magazine, has lots of ideas and I've enjoyed getting the magazine.  There are other magazines that I seem to like better at this point, that being Oprah and Good Housekeeping.  All in all, BH&G has been around a long time and I'll continue to receive this magazine.  About Amazon.com......you can get just about anything you like from Amazon.  I trust this company very much and appreciate all of the goods they do supply.  Go Amazon!!

text:
Saveur was sold to a "private equity group" in 2020. To me, Saveur is a lot more robust than any other food magazine. I am sorry to see Saveur is not accepting renewals.

 I hope the new owners of Bonnier's brass keep the magazine going.  II would be terrible to lose the cultural dialogue Saveur prepares through sharing recipes.  I want Saveur to keep publishing because the stories are not dumb and the recipes are good.

title: Worth the Money

text:
This is a good rag. And the price on it here is reasonable.

I gave the rag up years ago, though. I put my first real systems together in the 70s and 80s, and became an "audiofile" back then. This was during the years of the absurd HZ argument. Makers were claiming that their equipment produced HZ below 5, but humans can't hear anything much below 20.

These were also the days when audio companies and audio writers were making a huge deal of THD. Yamaha was the worst at this hype. As a human, you'd be a freak of nature if you could hear harmonic disagreements between components rated below 5%. So Yamaha bragged ceaselessly that its amps, pre-amps, or integrated amps had a THD rating of 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001
percent of one percent. You can't hear that. A bat can't hear that.

I still check into things going on now once in a while. They can be entertaining. I love the speaker advertisements. You can see pictures of 6 little tiny mini speakers with a "subwoofer" the size of those cute but very small boxes of Fruit Loops. And the speakers only cost $1,099--"and if you buy in the next  five minutes, you get 5 percent off that price."

The ad claims that the little speakers will produce "big sound" that will easily reach very high volumes in every room of your house at the same time. Meanwhile, you're reading this in front of your TV that goes through your 300W 1975 Crown pre-amp/amp to your two ADS floor speakers that weight 125lb each and the ADS subwoofer that is so heavy that it requires a crane to move it from one spot to another.

If you put the ADS subwoofer in some weird place, like your attic or in a closet in your basement, you better make a note of it somewhere. Why? The sound the woofer produces is totally omnidirectional. You can stand next to it in the attic, and it will sound exactly the same as it does when it's right next to the floor speakers and TV. You could take a break from searching for it by sitting on it in the attic with the
volume of the Crown driving it from downstairs set to 10. After a few minutes, you'd be good and rested and ready to start looking for the subwoofer again.

If you lose your subwoofer somewhere in your house, the best way to find it is to turn the volume to high and look for a small tornado on the floor. Look for places on the walls where there's absolutely no dust.  Look for paint chips. Look for places where there's no paint on the wall, places where there are holes in the sheetrock.

If I put my ADS subwoofer in the backyard shed next to the ally gate, I'd write it down and put the info in my bank box.

In regard to subwoofers, it's good that more people are starting to understand them nowdays. And I mean real subwoofers, not that junk Sony and the rest throw at us. The thing to do with the people who do buy the junk subwoofers need to be taken to a high end audio store and hear a real subwoofer. The salesman can demonstrate it instantly by turning the subwoofer off and on a few times when the music is driven by any particular pre-amp/amp or simple receiver.

title: Brand-new subscriber after abandoning Sci Am - great so far!

text:
After years of growing disgust with Scientific American (I've been a subscriber to Sci Am since 1975), I vented my frustration with SciAm by writing a scathing review on Amazon tonight. After writing the review, I perused the numerous other reviews from frustrated former SciAm lovers. Several of them recommended AmSci. I spent an hour checking out the AmSci website and I was hooked. I gave them my credit card and I am now a proud subscriber! Long live AmSci, good riddance to SciAm.

Will update this review as often as needed.  The only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is because AmSci has only 6 issues a year - not enough! Make it a monthly and I will raise my rating to 5 stars!

[Update Feb 27, 2011]
Now that my first print copy has arrived, I am glad to report that I am very, very pleased. Sci Am could learn a lot by looking at Am Sci. The magazine is dense! There is hardly any whitespace. Photos and illustrations are not full-page, but they add essential information. The articles are satisfying, thought-provoking and rigorous. Each one is written by a real, working scientist or full professor. I actually LEARNED things from this issue, instead of (as in the case of Sci Am), fuming about errors. And the book reviews! What a delight - about 6 pages of reviews! Each review was thorough, detailed, and nearly a page long.

Instead of stupid politics, there was a great essay on ethics in science.

I still wish this was a monthly! I would gladly pay twice as much for 12 issues a year.

The contrast between AmSci and SciAm is extreme. My March issue of SciAm went largely unread; I have put it on the shelf without finishing it. When my current SciAm subscription lapses, I will not renew. Instead, I plan to donate what I would have spend on SciAm to AmSci!


title: The sad, sad demise of a once-great magazine...

text:
UPDATE - an hour after I wrote the following review I checked out American Scientist magazine - I am now a proud subscriber. AmSci is everything that SciAm used to be! I'll keep my SciAm subscription for another year, and then will probably drop SciAm.

I'm so frustrated with Sci Am I could scream. I've been a subscriber since 1975; I have all the back issues lovingly stored in expensive magazine cases. I used to look forward to each new issue with excited, joyful anticipation. Now I dread the arrival of each pitiful rag. The only reason I have not dropped my subscription is the fading hope that they will fire most of the editorial board, starting with DiChristina, who is doing her best to morph SciAm into a Frankenstein's Monster of Popular Science (she used to be the editor of PopSci).

The "new" format is just another step down the long road to failure. The glued-binding keeps the magazine from sitting flat on a table, and if a page is torn there is no easy way to repair it.

It is distressingly skinny, a mere 82-96 pages per issue. When I complain about this, the response is that paper and ink are so, so terribly expensive - but if that is the problem, why do they squander page after page with either full-color pictures and graphics that add nothing to the content, or even worse, waste almost all of a page with nothing at all - no text, no images? Can't they afford to pay for a few thousand more words to fill the empty space? Here's a list of the wasted pages in the January 2011 issue: 34,35,40,41,46,47,half of 52, 53,58,65,half of 69,72,78, half of 79 and half of 88! This represents nearly 20% of the pages available for non-advertising content!

The layout has moved some of the few remaining decent features such as "50,100 & 150 Years Ago" to the back of the magazine. Even worse, the middle now has "feature articles" that are only two or three pages and a few hundred words long (because they are mostly whitespace or useless photos).

In the current issue, only two "full length" articles are written by actual research scientists - the rest of the fluff is penned by "science writers" from failing institutions such as the New York Times or grad students! Issue after issue goes by without a single equation appearing anywhere (except in ads for software)

Even the few decent articles, written by real scientists have been shortened to 6 pages or less, and the quality of the writing has deteriorated. Even as recently as 2004  I would LEARN things when I read Sci Am; now I am teased, confused and forced to research on the web to figure out what the author was trying to express, or (even worse) spending time scribbling corrections in the margins.

Long gone are former delights such as "Mathematical Games" or the "Amateur Scientist"

The content is consistently, disturbingly political, and always slanted to the left. I'm no right-winger, but anyone with a shred of objectivity can see the blatant bias that permeates the magazine. Essay after essay bemoaning human-caused climate change by hacks that can't do simple math that would tell them that if every one of the fruitless carbon-saving recommendations were adopted, the reduction in greenhouse gases would amount to an insignificant fraction of the total atmospheric mass of same. Every point in the "Political Wish List" on page 12 is stupid and just plain incorrect - ignoring for the moment the idiocy of even having a page devoted to a "Political Wish List" in a magazine purportedly devoted to science!

Even in the esoteric realm of theoretical physics, you will no longer find any essay that does not toe the "superstrings or the highway" mindset.

I'm not sure if circulation has increased since the dumbing-down started, and I really don't care. If it has gone up, it just means that I have nothing in common with the new subscriber base.

I'm genuinely freaked-out and at a loss. I don't want to see a gap in my unbroken swath of issues, but it galls me every time I write a check and send it to this bunch of losers. Perhaps I should just go to Walmart and snap hi-res photos of every page of every new issue, print and bind them, and wait until I see the problems have been corrected before sending them any more of my hard-earned money!

Disgusted,

Steve Crye

I subscribed to Sunset for years, like 25 years and then gave it a rest about 3 years ago because it wasn't of much interest to me.  I recently subscribed again when Amazon did a sale on this.  What a total waste of money.

Sunset used to have a large section on gardening and things to do in your garden for each month.  They also recommended new and different plants, sources to obtain them, what to plant and when, etc.  This latest December issue had one stinking page with a new rose variety on it, nothing about how to prepare your garden, basically nothing at all.  It did have an article in the gardening section on how to create a table centerpiece from pine cones and pine branch clippings.  Wow!  How unique.

What this entire magazine has become is a strange food magazine with a couple of travel articles on where to find expensive restaurants in the state.

Sunset should return to what it once knew how to do...show you how to build an outdoor project, focus on gardening and landscaping, places of interest in the West, home improvement projects, and toss in a decent recipe each month.  It seems as if those days are long gone and no wonder it's not a staple at the supermarket checkout any longer.

title: LOTS of ads, nice pictures, not much substance

text: I got this subscription free as part of an Amazon promotion, and now realize I would not subscribe to Details if I had to pay for it.  BUT, if you're looking for a lot of nicely-photographed ads, some nice (airbrushed and Photoshopped) pics of celebrities and models, and quick-to-read articles that lack any real depth, this is your mag!  But why would you pay for it?  You can see all of this online at dozens of websites for free.  While I still love holding and reading a great magazine with terrific photography, in this case I vote for "Save a Tree."


title: As great as it ever was!

title: Can't make subscription work with Kindle for PC or Kindle for Android

text: Long time subscriber to TV Guide Magazine via US mail (with subscription via magazine vice Amazon).  $20 advertised price much better than I've been paying for years and (supposedly) you get the mailed issue PLUS the online version at no extra cost.  Unfortunately went round & round trying to install the Kindle for Android on my Samsung Tab S with no luck then the same with installing the Kindle for PC on my Win 8.1 computer.  Couldn't find any help nor instructions.  Will wait to see if the actual paper magazine shows up in 2 to 6 weeks as claimed before cancelling.<br />Edit #1:  Upgraded from 1 to 3 stars because I finally got the Kindle for Android to work but not sure how or what made it work.  My tablet was recognized as 'Kindle hdx' in the app and once I renamed it as my 'Samsung Tab S' it let me 'deliver' an issue of TV Guide.  Still working to get Kindle for PC to work - figure it'll be much easier to read guide listings on a large computer monitor.
