Way, way, too much to pay for any magazine on a monthly basis. They should have stuck to Internet publishing. Conversion to Canadian means this will cost me probably $10.

They should have stuck to Internet publishing.

That should give you a feel for what the print version of the mag will be like - assuming the two are similar, of course!

They were inconsistently applying their terms or judgment. But the point here was that Diamond was refusing to carry the book even though they had similar offerings that they did distribute.

As I've said before... I would love to see some PDF files of this mag to prove that I should shell out $6 for it. Give me a teaser, list some article topics, tell me the mission statement of your mag to MAKE me want to buy it. If nothing is put out to make whet my beak and show that this is a different kind of magazine "for me", I will never even notice it on the shelf. Know what I mean? All I know about this magazine is the founder seems to want to throw himself in the spotlight more so than his mag. If I come off as cold I apologize, but I do believe the "hype machine" (and lord knows that if you want to sell a product, you need hype) is misplaced here.
