    I just renewed my subscription to Real Simple and it got me thinking.  Personally, I love reading magazines--spending time flipping through and looking at all the photos.  However, I do realize that since everyone does mostly everything online these days, by the time you get the magazine, you might have already seen everything online.  So I was wondering, am I the only one who still has magazine subscriptions?  Or do you just read everything online?

    ETA: I currently subscribe to Real Simple and People Style Watch.  My sis gets In Style Cooking Light and Martha Stewart and we swap our old issues.

    Oh no! I love magazines! Sometimes you just need a nice pretty glossy. We subscribe to way too many. We have Money, Food & Wine, In Style, Men's Health, Essence and that's because we cut down!

    I was subscibed to at least 4. But I decided that I did not want to get them anymore. I just read them online, or just go to barns and noble and read them.

    Right now, I only subscribe to a few horse magazines - Practical Horseman, Equus, and Dressage Today. Mostly because the horse industry is a bit, er, behind. I used to subscribe to Time, but started noticing that all their articles are online. Ditto Entertainment Weekly. 

    The one thing I would love to subscribe to is a newspaper, but it's just too expensive considering that it's free to read the stories online.

    This is admittedly nuts, but between my parents and me, we subscribe to about forty magazines.  We...really like them.
