Holly - this is a very thorough and awesome post you made today. THANK YOU.
As a consumer, I STILL prefer to read magazines than go to their respective sites. To date, I have NEVER visited sites like Cosmo.com, HouseBeautiful.com, LAMagazine.com (if that's even the URL), Wired.com etc - however, I have subscriptions to those magazines and MANY more and enjoy reading them cover to cover.
The same thing can be said for trade journals. I never go to XBIZ or AVN's digital magazines but ALWAYS scour the pages of the physical products as there are FEATURE articles and some things that neither post online. I cannot be bothered to sit on a kindle or an ipad and would rather get paper cuts from flipping pages of Martha Stewart Living and Vogue.
