Anyone know of a magazine similar to Computer Music in the UK that's available here in the US? I can get CM here at a bookstore, but it's rather expensive and about a month behind. I like the fact that every issue comes with a cd-rom or dvd of samples and software.

But I don't think you get the cd when the magazine is mailed to you via the subscription.

If you subscribe to Computer Music in the US, you WILL get the DVD.
I used to subscribe, but random issues would not get to me (I think the guys in the Post Office were collecting occasional reading material; I don't think it was the mag's fault.)

It's still gonna be a month behind... magazines are shipped 4th class on container ship and nothing's going to speed up the process!

it's a shame - i stopped reading CM many years ago cause it was way too expensive a habit to keep up.

The subscription page says "US: 12 issues and 12 CDs for only $24.95" so it looks like you do get the CD with the mag subscription... so no need to cry

Another vote for Virtual Instruments Magazine. There's an option to download all issues as PDF files--that's what I subscribed to. I kind of regret not going with the print versions (I was being cheap) since I love taking mags into the bathroom (er...not in that way). I could print out the PDF pages, but then I'd waste money on printer ink (a full color magazine shouldn't be printed out in black/white--you'd miss half the fun).
