Ask HN: Do you subscribe to print magazines anymore?

I've come across texture.com, it's US+Canada only so I can't subscribe but I'm pretty sure I would if I could - unlimited mobile access to lots of magazines for $9.99/mo.

#43Other than the usual suspects that have already been mentioned, I'm really enjoy New Philosopher recently http://www.newphilosopher.com/

#44Scientific American and Atlantic Monthly. Gotta have something next to the toilet that won’t set me back hundreds of dollars should it fall in while I’m reading.
Get a waterproof phone or tablet?

#45Yes. I have subscribed to Digit Magazine in India. I especially like their FastTrack supplememt, which is kind of short course for the subject it covers.

#46National Geographic and I'd like to get Nautilus' prints as well, but I've heard that they have (or had) a tough time getting orders fulfilled in a timely manner. I'd really dislike getting a certain month's magazine a month or more later; for me, in such cases, consistency is key.
I am also a happy NG subscriber.

#47I've worked for a well established print magazine publisher in the recent past, and can attest that in a period when online subscription increased by 100x, print subscription shrank by a factor of 10.
My understanding is that they continue to produce a print edition mostly because of certain advantages it confers in terms of positioning, and that it's now a loss leader.

#48Fitness magazine. Usually the information is rehashed stuff from last month but I subscribe for two reasons.
1. Monthly renewal of motivation to workout. 2. I limit screen time at home. So magazines are fun to read/look at.
