Does anybody still read magazines?
I have always loved magazines, and especially car magazines. At one time I subscribed to about seven of them. Things are changing, though.
Now I keep hearing that print is dead, and there's a lot of evidence that is true. For an evening of car related entertainment, I find myself going on line and watching a Petrlolicious video or scrolling through one of the great build threads here on Pelican instead of pulling out a magazine. Yes, the writing and photo quality of online stuff is perhaps lower (though surprisingly, not always), but you can take in so much more information so much more easily and thoroughly, and, often, even real-time interactively.
And yet. I still buy magazines. So I'm curious and interested to hear what others here do, although the sample may be skewed by the fact that people here have some facility with computers and online communities, and that facility perhaps exceeds that of core magazine readerships. But even so, if you've bothered to read this far, I'd be interested in hearing.
