I have cancelled a number of subscriptions and stopped buying them at
stores because there are just too damned many adds and no content. My
mother used to buy me a subscription to National Geographic but I asked
her not to bother because they screwed around with the format and made it
too hard to read. Instead of captioned pictures inset in the articles
they now have large pictures with captions printed over top in various
colours. My eyes can't handle it.
