Sometimes I'll buy Spin or Rolling Stone. Once in a while, I'll buy a fashion magazine, but only because I need something to line the bottom of my bird cage! :D

I get Reader's Digest. My mom renews that subscription for me. I buy DMA (Dance Music Authority) or DJ Times every once in a while. I get monthly catalogs/flyers from ProSound, Mars Music, Hot Tracks, DJ Wholesale Club, etc...
The last magazine I bought was an Entertainment Weekly at LAX last month (needed something to read on the flight home).

None. The only magazines I ever bought on a regular basis were the Twilight Zone Magazine in the 1980s and Marion Zimmer Bradley's magazine, but it's not being produced anymore since she's dead. Maybe once a year someone will buy me a Writer's Digest.

I subscribe to TV Guide, OnSat, and Satellite Direct. I have cable TV but I'm an information junkie; and still I have to go to the Web to get the channels that aren't listed in those three! I also subscribe to Popular Communications (a magazine about radio; I'm also a radio junkie) and buy its rival, Monitoring Times, at the only place in town that sells it! I always buy Weekly World News, America's most ludicrous tabloid, every week if possible.

At 1 time I got too many. I'll try to recall what I'm getting now.
German Shepherd Dog Review, Insight, Military History, Antique Automobile, Mechanical Engineering. I think that's it, and it's enough (besides my parents' subscriptions which I also peruse)!
In the past I've gotten American Spectator and Coins, and I don't have the time right now to remember what others if any....have to meet co-worker in a minute!

Private Eye - if that counts as a magazine. For you chaps over in the US, it's a satirical fortnightly publication well worth the £19 subscription...

Only Maxim. Used to get Archaeology, Entertainment Weekly and Playboy but let all expire.
Every now and again I'll purchase Biblical Archaeology Review, Military History or M.H.Q. (Military History Quarterly) but only if they contain articles that interest me.

I alway renew my subscription to National Geographic. I've been getting them since 1991, and I keep all of them. They come in handy for school reports, and the information in them is usually more up to date than the encyclopedias.
I also subscribe to Mad and Cosmopolitan. My daughter gets Nickelodeon's magazine.

I get Maxim, it's a total rag, but it's fun sometimes
Entertainment Weekly, keeps me up to date on pop culture, I'm such a pop culture junkie.. I probably read the whole thing cover to cover
Wired.. cool stuff, not hardcore technical stuff, but sometimes they have an interesting article or two
I used to get dozens of technical magazines, to keep up with the software biz, until I realized I never read them.. and that most of the articles were clearly written to sell some new whiz bang tool or another..
Kat: Mad Magazine, that's one of those magazines I always wanted to subscribe to, but never did.. I did however pick up the 6 CD-ROM box set with all the back issues.. can't say I read too many of them, but it was still fun to flip through
