Stereophile Scamming Subscribers?

I just renewed last week for two years at $23 a year. Yeah, I agree though, tagging existing subscribers for renewals that are higher than a new subscriber gets just doesn't sit right. If you're a loyal subscriber why should you be paying MORE ? 

BTW, not surprisingly (though I bet most of us never think of it) Amazon adjusts prices on product for various customers dynamically  so you and I might see different prices for the same product !

@clearthinker   I understood your point and I do like it from time to time,  it just gets to repetitive for me.  So, I take a break from it.

The PS Audio DAC comment was totally tongue-in-cheek.  I'll bet it will be good, maybe very good.  Seems to fit the pattern of their new speakers, big splash, flashy beautiful pictures and then a sterling review.  And yes I did audition them and was not impressed.

I am well passed buying without trying.

This happens with all magazines I've ever subscribed to. Just went through the same thing with The New Yorker. Offers vary from $60 to hundreds of dollars a year. They do send you a nice tote bag though.

I got mine in the mail and went to the website to renew. The only difference was that the website had a three year renewal option and the mail out only had  a one and two year option. The prices were the same. Seemed ok to me.  

Even though I agree that bitching about $20-30 a year is a waste of everyone’s time... I subscribed on Amazon for $9.74 a year with auto renewal. That is 81 cents an issue... That probably barely covers the postage
