lots of negativity about, i like the mag and have enjoyed several articles and stories about places i will never go and things i am not going to do, eg some of the sleeping under the stars stories, but mostly a good read, would like a few more reviews on anything really i like to read opinions on stuff i might buy,and rides in this country or europe i might go and do
didnt like the interview edition and the photo edition they used to do,but i view the editions i dont like as a kind of subscription to the forum which keeps me amused in work
i would like to apologise for my outburst at the start of this thread.
obviously what i said was not fact, just a bad case of trolling.
infact out of all the magazines available, st mag is pretty good.
ton.
At one time it really was on the money, but bit by bit I found more and more articles to skip, (a trend which has reversed last month). I think there have been just a few too many tenuous links for articles beyond the search for a niche this year. (Also, for the STW editorial team, do you think you give the kit for testing to the right people? - too many tests seem to find fault with kit, and then finish with a "but if you do this...." line - when, if I've read the mag close enough, I know one of the other writers probably has a greater affinity to "this").
But I still buy it more months than not and I buy it more often than the other monthlies. I won't be going premium as that just doesn't seem right.
So, all in all, subs aren't bad value, but don't be surprised if you leave a couple half read.
