Thanks for the contribution. I still find it unbelievable they can simply give away magazines via subscription, but we certainly benefit. It has spoiled me in terms of cost, so even if $4.99 is reasonable I'm not really willing to pay that much (yet). Walt. Thanks for the contribution.

This isn't at all a new issue--and until Audit Bureau of Circ changes its rules, it will continue.
