Shame if CM is no longer in the $50 promo but understandable, they must look at this thread and realise just how many sales they've lost (I only really bought CM for the software and haven't had to do that since last summer(?)
)
get CM Studio for FREE!

Last time I had a $5 voucher, I struggled to find anything I wanted that it covered, ended up paying the difference.

Seems that Computer Music and Future Music has disappeared from the selection list. Only one left is the CM Specials.
Also Classic Rock seem to have gone...

I also got Rolling Stone from there awhile back. No longer. Oh, well.
I'm confused about the decision to remove these mags from the promo, though. My (admittedly limited) knowledge of publishing is that the actual subscription price pales in comparison to the circulation value.
In other words, the price to actually buy the magazine is minimal in terms of revenue dollars. In many cases, it barely covers the cost of the actual printing and distribution. The real value to the magazine is in high circulation numbers which will, in turn, significantly boost ad revenue. So if a successful promo gets, say, thousands of new, but non-paying, subscribers, this could still significantly boost the bottom line in ad dollars.
Oh well. Fun while it lasted.
Either way, I will still continue with an electronic subscription, even if I have to pay for it. It's about 1/3 of the price of the print 'zine, and the savings from my CM subscription alone essentially pay for my new Kindle HD.
cheers

Is there any way to get back issues with this?

It usually takes a couple of days to get the mail from Zinio, after putting in the order at the page.

I've sent Future an email about the missing downloads for this issue as offered on page 98. Maybe they're just behind. EDIT: All fixed now.

I've got the e-mail with CM Special, but now I have another problem. I don't have Windows 8 neither a potent smarthphone to run their app. What can I do? I have an android phone, an old one and I can't install the app on it because it's not supported. Is there a way to read it in a PDF reader or something like that?
