I don't have much choice over here.

Sometimes I will pick up T3 to look at the shiny gadgets.

I also like Wired from time to time if there are a few interesting articles in there.

Do you find any net mags are any use?

Maxim and Mens Fitness sometimes.

The NME (when I'm in it), Sound on Sound - when I have the cash going and am in WH Smiths... and sometimes whatever 'family tree' mag is going because I like to research into my past now and then.

My bird gets all sorts.. I think she lives for magazines and shoes. All the womens mags seem to be the same, a few celeb and soap stories, one or two real life shockers,agony aunts that get double page spreads, horoscopes, pages and pages of adverts, a few jokes and letters..that's it! I don't understand why a woman would want numerous magazines each with the same crap in them every single week.

I had to give up buying Viz cos it was getting too crap. And my standards are pretty low.

I used to buy Uncut every month but I didn't like their recent revamp and they also jumped on the anti-Daniel Craig bandwagon so I stopped buying it in protest.

I recently discovered Psychologies which has some interesting stuff in it but its totally aimed at women though so you get lots of ads for moisturiser.

I used to buy Web User which is pretty decent.

I haven't but any comp/net mags for a few years. They just became increasingly irrelevant to me.

Other magazines I do buy are Maxim (every issue ever!), Private Eye, DVD Review and New Scientist. I sometimes buy Bizarre and Derbyshire Life if there's an article of interest, or Zoo if there's a particularly nice spread in the centre pages. I also buy fetish magazines whenever I see them.

I used to buy PC User and Protoculture Addicts, but stoped buying them as I didn't find them interesting anymore.
