Lowest Price People en Espanol (1-year)


I have been renewing my subscription to People en Espanol for over 3 years now through Amazon. I just happened to visit my grandmother (September 2009) and ask her how she liked her magazines. I didn't see them out anywhere in her stash of reading materials. She said that she hadn't received one since October 2008. I immediately called the magazine's customer service. They stated that they had incorrectly recorded the address using Avenue instead of Drive (as listed in the order) and the magazine was noted as undeliverable since October 2008. They agreed to extend my subscription for the 11 month difference. Don't get me wrong, this is a great magazine, I was just disappointed that they failed to notify me (at my billing address, which is different than the shipping address) that my magazine "gift" was undeliverable. Thank goodness for grandmother's memory. I will not renew this year.Get more detail about People en Espanol (1-year).

Discount MacLife (1-year)


Being new to the Apple experience I thought this might be helpful. It is not. I am not the most computer savvy person but I do use a windows based PC with the standard Office apps every day. This magazine assumes a higher level of MAC awareness then I possess. I was hoping for more of an introduction to using the different mac apps. I will not renew this.Get more detail about MacLife (1-year).

Cheapest Official Xbox Magazine [with DVD] (1-year)


I don't want to spend much time writing this review. But anyways...

OXM is a decent magazine, comparing Amazon's price to what you pay retail, is night and day. The magazine is "definitely" not worth $8-10 per issue. The $3 or less, that Amazon charges is about where it should be. But yeah, I can't really even say this magazine is worth $3 an issue. It's about half-filled with advertising, and the other half is only about 30 pages of information that's already available on the web.Get more detail about Official Xbox Magazine [with DVD] (1-year).

Cheap Psychology Today


Yes, the magazine has "risque" covers, but that's to get people to pick it up. And then, hopefully, someone who wouldn't have otherwise read a factual, informational, psychological magazine will read it. I feel the stories are designed to be interesting to a wide range of people, and they keep the diction simple enough so that even if you're not a psych student you can make sense of it. I also think the stories bring relevance to psychology - it's not all about people with disorders and treatments, etc - it relates to day-to-day thought processes and behavior. Besides, if you're a psychology student, you shouldn't be expecting this magazine to substitute a textbook or published study. I'm a psychology student, and I find the articles refreshing - they're informative, relevant to society, thought-provoking, and teach without shoving theory after theory down your throat.Get more detail about Psychology Today.

Order Hobby Farms (2-year)


Today, I received my first issue of Hobby Farms, and I am very pleased with the magazine. Although I currently live in suburbia, I make the most of my yard by gardening year-round, am motivated to become more self-efficient and make the move to a rural community in the not so distant future. For now, I am reading up on possible business ideas for a small hobby farm (game birds, animals for fiber, orchards, etc.), which I hope this magazine will have articles on in future issues. Although the magazine does have quite a bit of advertisements throughout, I read through them anyway because it is all new to me. I like the fact that there are recipes from the season's harvest, reader's pages & photos, and ideas for people who have hobby farms for pleasure as well as primary source of income. There is something to be learned from all of that. My hope is that this magazine will increase to a monthly publication in the future.Get more detail about Hobby Farms (2-year).

Shop For BBC History Magazine


I too recently subscribed to BBC History Magazine through Amazon and had no problems. It's a colorful magazine full of interesting and lively articles and stimulating ideas. Indirectly, I also see BBC History Magazine as a kind of travel magazine. There are lots of historical places I want to check out after reading a few issues. Highly recommended!Get more detail about BBC History Magazine.

Art in America


So many magazines are falling out of print due to lack of readers and increasing ease to read online. Some publications go from my first read to the recycling bin, but not so with ART IN AMERICA. Articles are rather interesting, the pictures are glorious, and I have yet to dispose of a copy. It's a pleasure to read about art, artists, critics, galleries and collectors, all in a concise format. I will admit that I do not read each article, but I scan each issue and find myself returning to a particular article I may have skipped after a memory is triggered. I also enjoy the feel of the paper because it is not so heavy as to weigh down the magazine, but it holds up well to page turning and storage. I recommend this magazine to lovers of art who want to increase their visual literacy.Get more detail about Art in America.

National Geographic Review


In an era of declining journalism, National Geographic shines above all else as a benchmark for quality, and photojournalism. They have recently won multiple ellie's the equivalent of the Pulizer prize in the magazine industry.

Each issue includes one or two features articles from around the world. While the magazine contains advertisements, they have placed ads in the front and back of the magazine so that feature articles are not interrupted by an annoying, gaudy ad, a practice often seen in other magazines. The quality of the photos is simply amazing, the magazine uses a high quality paper to deliver a better reading experience. In addition, the magazine occasionally features large folded photos.

It is not fair that other reviewers, provide a lower rating for this magazine because it can be found cheaper elsewhere. National Geographic provides a lower introductory rate. However, once you get past the first year, subscribers need to pay the default rate of $34. Get more detail about National Geographic.

PCPhoto Top Quality


PC Photo renamed this mag, "Digital Photo", I guess to better reflect the contents of the mag. It's been around for quite a while under the old name and I have subscribed off and on through out the years. It provides all the required info on cameras and lenses and accessories. I enjoy reading it from cover to cover and appreciate the test info and break down of the gear.Get more detail about PCPhoto.
