For years, I subscribed to "Computer Music" magazine, which, as you know, has since closed. Occasionally, I also bought "Future Music" and "Keys." Luckily, I kept all the paper issues and the accompanying CDs/DVDs. I know that "Beat" is now the magazine that most closely resembles "Computer Music," but it's not printed, and the software is only available online.
I like having physical magazines and DVDs to keep, not their digital avatars...
Do you know of any similar magazines (even non-English ones) that are published in physical format, possibly with a CD/DVD included, that I can subscribe to?

 

SoundOnSound do physical copies, I went to a gear repair shop recently, and they had all the recent issues in the reception waiting area

 

I buy Sound on Sound every month from local supermarket, nothing beats paper for reading

 

You should really get out of the house more......LOL!!

@PulseWave Does Tape Op still have paper version? I thought they went only online version

 

I've gone 100% digital for everything, even the toilet paper.

 

Computer Music Mag was everything, Sad they had to close..Always looked forward to new issues. Still have stacks of them!

 

For sure. They used to call them 'Newsagents' when I was little. These days, Airports and corner stores still have plenty of magazines you can read that aren't digital. For sure it's all moving digital, but some will keep printing even though it is nowhere as profitable as it used to be.

 

There's a huge wall of magazines at my local grocery, right next to some racks of sunglasses, it's like a blast from the past every time I accidentally find it.
