Well, for computer magazines it's not &quot;for nothing&quot;. The popular
magazines are coming in 2 flavors, one with cover media, the other
without. Guess which is cheaper.

That is the reason I stopped subscribing years ago. I only buy a
magazine if I am interested in an article or I want the cover media.
So I don't feel guilty.

Anyhow, I don't think that this part of the discussion even has an
impact on cover media. As long as we have a live DVD or CD (with
German language) the German magazines will get what they need (this
goes for all other countries as well).
