The Return of Mygazines

By Nicko Margolies on July 20, 2009

Last year, we discovered Mygazines, then a legally dubious website offering user submitted magazines online for free. After a hiatus to figure out a better business plan, Mygazines has returned to again offer users the ability to view a collection of magazines for free.  However, this time around the site will not allow members to upload magazines to share, but rather controls the content for “verified publishers.”

The site is looking to expand from just magazines and will hopefully continually be improving their selection.  The former rich selection of the Economist, Playboy and others have been replaced with Park World, Tobacco Retailer and Quebec Erotique.  Hopefully the transition from piracy to legal publisher cooperation will yield some interesting results and it’s still a great alternative to shifting through the selection in a magazine store.
