The $1/week is a ridiculous grab from people who are unaware that there is a cheaper option available.
- Lazare 11y agoYep: https://subscribe.wired.com/subscribe/wired/ https://subscribe.wired.com/subscribe/wired/ Something squirrelly in the pricing tiers.
- lstamour 11y agoIndeed. You can subscribe to digital-only Wired for $19.99 anywhere in the world, and in the US it includes a print copy too. I'd consider a $1/week if it covered all Conde Nast publications, or a significant portion of the internet. By that logic, though, I'd prefer if a subscription to Texture (Next Issue) or other content services included free access to the affiliated websites without ads. It adds up quick, but even the weekly version works out to $3.46/week for basically every magazine I'd care to read... Of course ... I'm just saying this. I actually don't read magazines. But I'd pay for a subscription, especially if I could share it with family.
- Eridrus 11y agoThose are probably subsidised by ad revenue.
- uptown 11y agoWired is one of those mags you can easily get a subscription for under $5. Free subs used to be pretty common too. My current subscription goes till something like 2024 due to stacking a bunch of free or cheap subscriptions together. $1/week makes no sense.
