Yes, I can imagine. And that's going to be happening for quite a
while. I really dont' know if it's a trade-off, b one thing I can see
happening for more than a moment, it that it will obviously hurt the
rec. areas that are already experiencing hard times, However it will
increase business in other places that aren't used to it.

Man, readers digest is joining the ranks in the tank


That is hard to believe but I know they were seriously mismanaged for
a number of years by the old time family owners. When I was a kid I'd
pore over every issue as soon as it arrived. In small town America
it was my only exposure to some of the big city publications like the
Wall Street Journal and a few others.- Hide quoted text -

I rememebr combing over them as a kid. They were great. My
grandparents subscribed to the RD from probably the beginning and
there were always piles of them around their house.


Sad to see it go, that is the US editions.


Magazines are on the endangered list.
The ones they publish are getting thinner.
This month's Scientific American is 88 pages. 10 years ago it was
double that. Newsweek has become a pamphlet.- Hide quoted text -

I must say that I quit subscribing to magazines several years ago when
they turned into advertizing outlets with some minor articles in
them. I thought it was redundant for companies to pay for ads to be
put in the publications, then me pay to see the ads.

Scary for this province. We have three large mills that produce rolls of
newsprint and fancier glossy paper for magazines.- Hide quoted text -

Yeah. Bad for that industry, but with inginuity maybe they could
convert their operations over to make toilet paper. There's always a
market for toilet paper.

Great idea! There seems to be plenty of **** flowing up there.
