 Good But Not Like a Magazine May 16, 2010
Arash Ebrahimi (Menomonie, WI, USA)
It contains most articles found in Newsweek, easy to read and well formatted however it doesn't give you the sense that you are reading a magazine but a book.
No advertisement (By which I was amazed), no pictures, and only a handful package of articles and nothing else. It doesn't include some pages that Newsweek usually has, like the page that briefly tells the news, and non-article pages.
 Now I remember why I cancelled my subscription April 15, 2010

I subscribed to the Kindle Newsweek. . . for about 1 hour. Now I remember why I canceled my magazine subscription a couple of years ago. I read the magazine for 25-years and in the past few years, it just became boring and biased. The Kindle version is even worse. The trial issue I downloaded was so boring, I read one article. On top of that, there was a paucity of stories and articles to begin with. Save yourself time and money. Give it a miss. Sure graphics and photos would be nice, but if I want to read something, I'd like it to be interesting and informative. If I want to watch something, I'll look at TV. I can see why it's subscriptions have plummeted.Journalism at it's most boring.

I have enjoyed the reliable delivery and the decreased accumulation of clutter in my home. However, the magazine loses its character with the deletion of multiple sections -- Perspectives, Convenional Wisdom, Then & Now, and a few of the others already mentioned by previous reviewers. I would expect a price increase of the magnitude recently announced to be accompanied by some improvement to the delivered product, and that improvement would be most appropriate were it to result in inclusion of some of the missing sections that contribute to the character of the print version.

I like magazines on my Kindle. I do not need color pictures of authors and can get the meat of the articles roughly twice as fast as the print versions. However, Newsweek omits Perspectives, Conventional Wisdom and the cartoons. Cartoons display very well on Kindle - ex: New Yorker. Unfortunately, the omitted portions are my favorite sections. Canceled the trial.

So let me get this straight. I can buy a paper subscription of 54 issues (2 years) for $40.00 on Amazon, and 2 years of Kindle Newsweek will cost me $71.78 (2.99 per month for 2 years). Is me looking at the ads that important to them? This is the reason I wait with glee for some of these publishers to go out of bussness. Bye, bye Newsweek.
