Magazines make money by selling ads and by selling subscriptions to foreigners. There are no mega bookstores here, where you can read US magazines.

Mega bookstores make money by selling a lot of useless stuff. Smaller bookstores go bankrupt.

If you look for TASC articles, simply buy a subscription. The DVD contains over 3,000 articles, but do you really want to read 3,000 articles on a computer screen or IPAD? The magazine is most convenient and is rather inexpensive.

I subscribe to TAS&C but I think I prefer Active Trader more because it has a more quantitative approach and most of the techniques they discuss include backtested results. However, TAS&C is better at providing code relevant to their articles though across multiple platforms.

One benefit I did get from TAS&C was downloading the source codes related to indicators in the articles . I never found an indicator that I included in my trading plan, but I learned a lot about writing code.
