I disagree as it was pretty annoying to pay $$$ like you did for magazines and have over 50% of the pages filled with ads." Exactly! The only magazine I ever bought for the Ads was Computer Shopper.... Now, if they include ads to keep the content free to me, fine. But if I have to pay, no ads please.

I used to subscribe to several tech magazines when I was first getting started with tech back in the 90's, but as time went by I hated paying for advertising and content that I could get free from other sources.

The only online content I pay for is the Wall Street Journal, which runs about $100 per year. The NY Times circulation guys are crazy if they think people will pay $360 per year. I think this app is going to be a lot more interesting to advertisers than to readers. Note how the Wired guy stresses that ads are as "important" as content for magazine readers.
