I was thinking along the same lines. Of those 1.25 mil subscribers who knows how many are actually paying.

Thankfully I have long subscriptions to both Stuff and Maxim. So I guess I am safe there.

My free subscription to Official Playstation Magazine got switched to EGM since that one closed up shop as well. Hopefully FHM does the same type of thing, if they don't ohh well I'm already getting Stuff & Maxim subscriptions for free along with about 10 other magazines. Playboy... :Grin:

My subscription was supposed to run until Jul '09. I have not received one letter telling me what is going to be happening to the rest of subscription, i.e. transferring my remaining issues to another magazine. The final issue didn't mention a thing. Has anybody heard about getting other mags for the rest of their subscription period?

I am pretty sure I am now getting Us magazine as a replacement for FHM. It started coming the month after FHM quit and I never signed up for it.

It would be nice to get another magazine even if it is US. If I don't I don't. Worst case I am out about around $15. The last two magazines I subscribed to that ceased publication were Stereophile Home Theater and Premiere and the last issue of each coincided with the last issue of my subscription for both. I am way ahead of the game, no tears. It would have been cool to get the British FHM as a replacement but the postal fees would have been to rich for them.

I'm not getting any new mags. I had like 8 years on my FHM subscription.

I'm not getting anything new that would be attributed to FHM shutting down. Looks like they took the money and ran, despite it not being my money.
