I just discovered this really good website that has full magazine scans. Really good quality and very readable. They have things like FHM, Maxim, Mens Health, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and loads of others.

It's free. I think people just scan the mags and then upload them, so you get some real random ones. You have to register.

I got a couple of subscriptions to my favourite mags for Christmas last year from my family. Since we've pretty well figured out how to get everything we miss from home here, it was pretty much the best gift ever.

Thanks for the link. Although they don't have the magazines I'm interested in, there are a few that catch my eye there. It's worth signing up for.

Um...have you tried visiting the website of any magazine you want to read? Here's a tip: roughly 100% of magazines post the same articles on their websites. For free. The only thing missing are the hundreds of pages of ads.

Give it a try.

I think the content on Maxim's website is different than in the magazine.

Do they have Rodox? If not, no dice.

How is the USO's magazine selection? I read they only charge 1.50 above the cover price. How do you buy from the USO anyway?

i saw the other week that barnes and nobles now has a wide variety of online magazines available for subscriptions for pretty cheap prices for those who are interested. pretty much anything you find in a store you can find online there.

as much as i love to read magazines, i don't think i'd be satisfied with reading them online. it's just not the same. i think i'd probably rather pay the few extra bucks and buy a real one at kyobo.

I like Nxstand, for many reasons. Very uptodate, functional. Lots of magazines for special interests.....

Tons of English magazines at What The Book in Itaewon, although they can be expensive (hey, it's Korea).

I copy and paste web site text/blog I come across while surfing into a word doc, print them out in a batch, and read them later. I've had no desire to read a magazine in a long, long time.
