I read some texts online but some of them you just can't read online.
I only buy a magazine in a month and I receive it at home so it doesn't bother me as it is already paid. I like the smell of the paper, the glossy pages, it looks better than a computer screen. Besides, you can keep them and collect them. I have lots of them and sometimes I read the old ones to remember some stuff.

I still like to read magazines. I usually order a short subscription for an introductory price and then don't renew. I like to have them in the house because it's a nice break from reading off a computer screen. I take them out to my sunroom and sit with my magazines and take a break from my hectic life.

I hadn't bought a magazine in months then i bought two the other day to read in the car on the way up to Scotland. I usually don't have enough time to read them but every so often i'll buy one to check out the new fashions and see if theirs anything i fancy.

What I read mainly is online, why spend money on something you can simply read for free online as well. Asides from that with every magazines you don't buy you save part of a tree ;), lol :P.

I prefer to buy my magazines rather than look online. For one thing I like to have the glossy pictures. The other thing is that I like to be able to hold what I read in my hand and have it be tangible... I do not like reading the computer screen.

The only magazine I buy is a parenting magazine. Whilst I can find some parenting information online I still find it very useful to buy one because I can take a magazine anywhere where I can't bring my desktop.

I buy some magazines, but don't buy as many as I did several years ago. There are times its great to take a magazine with me when I have to wait for somebody. Yesterday, I read a magazine while waiting for my internet connection to be fixed.

No, I don't buy magazines. They typically cost more than they are worth. Why pay exorbitant prices for something you will finish reading in 5 min?

Since I have my internet connection, I havent bought even a single magazines for our house. What i always did if I've heard some issues, i just search the net and print it out. That way I can even took some comments from other people.
