Netflix, but for magazines?


Yes, we are all familiar with NetFlix and their movie rental delivery service that changed the way people rent and watch movies. Netflix has allowed us as consumers to rent movies we probably would'nt have ever watched, did we not have a service that was mailing us new movies on a weekly basis.

Now take all that Netflix "goodness" and apply it to Magazines... I know, I know, at first glance it sounds like a waste of money. However, think about... Lets say you are already subscribing to one or two magazines. Take that money and apply it to this service, and now you can switch out your magazines on a monthly basis. Lets say for example that one month you wanted to try People magazine and later decide that next month you want to try Sports Illustrated, with this service you can.

The concept is nice, why get stuck in a year-long subscription to a magazine you might get sick of, when you can pay roughly the same price and have the option to change out your subscription at any time... Pretty cool!

The service is called MagHound, check it out here: http://maghound.com

It sounds like a cool concept. I'm just not sure if I want to be checking out a magazine that some other dude read on the John! Or used for something else...Why are these pages stuck together?
