I think what you get for an annual subscription is absolutely outstanding value for money! The magazine is still head and shoulders above the mainstream, big publishing, advertising stuffed rubbish!
And I think STW towers deserve some credit for being a bit more adventurous with their business in an industry which is in flux in a similar way the music industry was 10 years ago. With an equally uncertain future.
If you don’t like it, don’t pay it! I’m happy too. Because if nobody is prepared too, then don’t start moaning when high quality sites like this don’t exist any more. and instead, you’re reading badly written, poorly researched, lowest common denominator drivel, that’s actually barely disguised advertising!
