Nice! Too few classic magazines are fully archived (in downloadable PDF, not just images or some moronic proprietary formats).

Now, if someone were to do the same for Rolling Stone. I’m mostly interested in the 80’s and 90’s issues. There is an old CD-ROM that has them (you can easily find it), but the contents can’t be extracted and it only works on old computers.
