MWAN and EEL had been staples of mine too but I also dabbled in subscriptions to Wargames Illustrated, Miniature Wargames. and probably a few more that I cannot recall.<br /><br />As you stated, the internet has replaced my subscription to print journals with the exception of my recently acquired interest in Slingshot. Still pick up the occasional issue of WSS and Ancient Warfare from the newstand. Really, many blogs surpass the content found in the print glossies but I still miss MWAN.

The English glossies always seemed long on pictures and very short on useful content to me. Domn't know hopw I missed subscribing to "Slingshot", probably the lopngest in continuous publication of all current magazines! Fortunately for me, airplane travel is usually once a year or less for me, so the elctronic copmpanion isn't the same draw. For me, the internet has largely replaced print magazines since at least 2000.

My experience is that I forget I have the pdf version of a magazine so it does not get fully utilized. Physical mags, on the other hand, get pulled from the shelf on a regularly.
