can't remember the last time i purchased a music magazine. but without music magazines, what will i read at the doctors office/hairdresser?

just saved 50k trees in the Canadian hinterland.

mmm...hinterland.

What am I going to do with my 40 subscriptions to VIBE now?

what's a "magazine"?

I wonder if the internets are to blame.

Your doctor gets music magazines??!!? Mine has golf, tennis, skiing and the economist.

Good job, Funderburgh.
Glad someone beat me to the Office Space joke!

I can't wait to celebrate the death of Rolling Stone someday. Too bad too, cause that was a great magazine for a long time but has been a total sham for years now.

vibe is/was a music magazine?

look at that cover... it doesn't exactly scream "new music reviews".

(and, yes, i know rolling stone and other, uh, rock mags are guilty of that as well, so keep those "you're a racist" comments saved for another time... i'm just making a point.)

magazines are a dying breed. fuck them. just a waste of money.

never knew it existed.

what he just said

everyone wants free content.

Except for Matt Taiibi, Rolling Stone is a waste.
And yes, everyone wants free content, more than they want quality content.

Rolling Stone gave U2's lastest bomb album 5 stars. How embarrassing? Wonder how much Bono paid for that? And all the soft-porn covers, both gay and straight? Desperation time!

Bono probably gave Jann Wenner a hummer for the 5-star review of his latest plate of crap. And I don't mean a vehicle.

I won a lifetime subscription to Rolling Stone and a friend of mine pointed out that I lost cause I now have a lifetime subscription to Rolling Stone. The magazine isn't terrible - they have decent writing about politics and the music BUSINESS - but the music writing they write about has been a joke for decades. I do have to give them credit for having an expiration date on my lifetime subscription label though, so at least I now know exactly when I'm going to die.

SPIN is pretty terrible, also

Spin layoffs as well . .

you should let us vote on people's comments. it makes me feel good.

This is your opportunity BV. Start a weekly BV magazine that's delivered via mail straight to your home for $20 a month. Huge money especially with all the zines folding...

What they just said.

Plus, New Yorker is the only magazine I read and strictly, strictly, STRICTLY for the fiction.

The Wire (not Wired) is the best music magazine published and very little of their content is available online so I pony up the absurd $10.00 cover price for it every month - and I never feel ripped off.

there's a 4 letter for that dreadful publication: stay tuned for answer.

If I'm going to pay $10 for a magazine it better have nudity in it.

poor magazines. poor, poor magazines.

I miss porn mags, high speed has me exsausted and desensitized.

i kept renewing my subscription. i want that money back and i'm thinking about doing something about it.
