      Was thinking on magazines standing in line at CVS. They had quite a selection so I assume people still buy them, but who?! GenX is well beyond caring and most Boomers are tech literate enough. Weird.

        I remember all those kids going door to door selling magazine subscriptions when I was a teenager. Obviously people still buy them. I think my wife got a Vogue last time we traveled but that was a few years ago and we had not bought one since we last traveled a few years before that.

        So we have bought two magazines in the last five years or so. I would be interested to see just who is still buying them. I read somewhere that they are more popular than newspapers.
