But man, the number of alternate covers some issues have. A special con edition is kinda neat, but it seems like a bit of overkill. 100 different covers seems insane to me. A blank sketch surface for an artist at a con or as a sales pitch, ok, that's cool. I am not the target market :) Now, I would consider buying a book just of all the covers - but 100 or even 10 copies of the same thing, where the only difference is a preprinted cover? Nope.
EW plugs their alt covers in each issue - they show you the options and of course point you to the website where you can buy it. I do still subscribe to and read a bunch of physical print magazines (quick count, at least 15), but I usually recycle them when I've read them (I might donate Asimov's, and of course I'll pass on 'hey read this article' issues.) Well, now I recycle them. I do have a collection of MAD, Heavy Metal, and video games magazines.
BUT - just because it's not for me, doesn't mean it's not for somebody, and I'm all for companies trying to (legally) improve their livelihood however they can.

These free magazine from Mercurymagazines.com you really need to get right away as soon as you receive the email. I received the email at about 10:15 am and clicked on the link at 10;41 AM and managed to get it. Very likely these free magazines only last about an hour or so.
