SELECTION:

FYI, it looks like you'll want to do your magazine selections from the app. I could not see how to choose my 4 subscriptions on the web (which is how I signed up). There is actually a tab on the app with the AT&T logo labeled "my selections". You can change the four each month, but you have all their back issues available for the month too! 

 

SEARCH:

There appears to be no search for magazine titles on the web?

There is a search in the app but if you don't have the words in the title (search "Education" where there are no magazines with that in the title) it actually searches the contents of magazines, it doesn't seem to have the magazines "tagged" with keywords other than the other hierarchical search. 

 

MORE THAN FOUR?

It's only 4 magazines, but you get the back issues they have on file. So if you're willing to do four magazines this month (and read 2 months) and do 4 others next month, you could effectively do 8 magazines. Obviously, this wouldn't work well for a weekly news magazine. But something something not super time sensitive it might be fine.

 

NON-MAGAZINES:

They also have some "books" that you might buy at a magazine stand, like 

  • GoPro for Beginners
  • All About History Book Of Myths & Legends
  • Astronomy: The complete manual
  • Running for beginners
  • and lots more... (Brains, Sharks, Star Trek, iMovie, Egypt, WordPress, Titanic, Knitting, etc.)
    But you need to choose UK as your country and Education as the topic for these.

 LANGUAGE:

Unless you speak multiple languages, you probably want to limit your search to US, Canada and UK. Keep in mind, this is COUNTRY not LANGUAGE. But other countries do have English magazines, for example: India does have a few magazines in English. But if you stick to the English speaking countries, most of their magazines are probably in English.

Hmm.   Might be something I can actually take advantage of.

 I still think ATT is missing the boat.  Free coffee or soft drink. Free donut.  The freebies don't have to be big, they just have to be something all customers can feel they can use at least once a month.  

Hate to say it, but T-mo does it right.  They change offers all the time, they are small perks and instantly usable.

The one thing I'm not sure of is where my 30 days are up so that I know I can go change out my magazines.

 

It works and looks awesome on my 12.9" iPad.
