I forget where I read that, but the point was that people like the feel of a magazine in hand. The convenience of being able to flip to a page or article easily. The ability to flop back on a rainy Sunday afternoon, read or peruse a bit while waiting for the couch monster kidnap the reader to snoozeland. Of course, one can do that with a laptop, but a magazine performs the inevitable off-belly dismount more quietly and with less expensive consequences. I'm thinkin' photographers will require whatever magazines demand. Chris Lawson
