You how many magazines do you get dropped through your letter box, rather than you having to go to the shop to buy them?
EDIT
This is just for magazines, not journals etc.

I subscribe to two magazines, but also get journals on a quarterly basis from hobby and club memberships.
I used to subscribe to more, but I let them drop by the wayside for various reasons.

Currently none, but I have been considering subscribing to one or two of the MMA magazines I read regularly.
I've voted accordingly.
FWIW I did used to subscribed to CPC and Men's Health, I dropped CPC when it stopped being of interest to me and Men's Health were sneaking up the price every now and then, so I let that go too.

c't and that's it. I used to get Der Spiegel, but I found I never had time to read them.

The only magazine that I purchase every month is Custom PC and I have subscribed to this for a good while. I bought a DSLR photography mag at the airport recently and I might be in the market for a regular purchase of such a mag but it will be some time before I'm ready to consider subscribing to one in particular.

MacUser, Macworld (though in my mind, that one is on notice), 2000AD and the Judge Dredd Megazine. Like Heather, a couple of hobby based journals crop up form time to time. I think that 4 subs is more than plenty. Anything else I’ll buy if I like what I see in Smiths and I feel it’s worth having a copy to take home with me.

I don't subscribe to any, but the newsagents delivers a copy of the Fortean Times with the papers.
I probably should just stick that on subscription.
My father, on the other hand, has a Classic & Sports Car sub, The Automobile and some other Mercedes-based mag, I think.

I get a copy of MacUser every other week, but I never read them. They are full of howto's of Photoshop, Illustrator and other creative stuff, I don't have the need to do that, or the money to buy those products...
I may swap it for a subscription of iCreate, which has a nice balance of free and paid for; geeky and creative stuffs. It's double the money, but it's a much better quality read, has more pages, always comes with a CD and is monthly I think...
