To the guys who don't subscribe and don't buy the magazine, but instead read it in the library: What a great idea! If everyone did that there wouldn't be ANY model magazines. And by the way, who do you think pays for this website and set up these forums? <br /> <br />As to the number of ads: Sure, there are a lot. But you know what? I enjoy reading them, which is way different than the other magazines I read where I hardly glance at the advertisements. <br /> <br />Someone else said that we have an expensive hobby, and that can certainly be true. But again, the hobby shop owners I know don't seem to be getting rich. And I also have the impression that the people who work for MR, RMC, and the other model magazines could make a lot more money doing a similar job in Time, or Newsweek, or any of the other glossy expensive magazines you see in your local book store. And while you're at it, next time you're in a book store check out the prices of some of the other magazines. They're not cheap.
