I subscribed to Teen Vogue for their investigative journalism.
...Never in a million years did I ever think I would be writing that.
- wink 10y agoI just checked out what their subscription actually means and I am a little dumbfounded. - "1 year of Teen Vogue in print and tablet for $5" - nice, that's cheap. But can't I do digital only? "For delivery to a non-US address, please click here." - Digital only "All non-US orders" - One year for $9.99 WTF
- maxerickson 10y agoAds. The print ad rates are set based on the subscription count. They are a big chunk of the revenue for those subscribers.
- wink 10y agoThanks for trying to explain it to me - but I still don't get why I shouldn't find a friend in the US to get the paper issues mailed to them (to throw them away, or read them) and still only pay half of the price. Probably the same thing as every geo-location access (i.e. Steam prices often equalling 1 USD = 1 EUR) - but I've never seen such a severe disconnect.
