"In March, Game Informer introduced out a way to subscribe to the magazine directly — previously, you could only get the magazine by buying issues on their own or through a GameStop Pro subscription."

Huh, that sounds crazy. Even back in the 90s subscriptions were common in the UK. I would get a 6 month/1 year sub to a magazine i liked for a birthday every now and then. There would always be a page trying to get readers to sub.

I assumed this is how the likes of Edge still survive.
