It is not my fault if what I get of the shelf  does not have as much in it as my friends subscription copy, due to the publisher.But you did not pay for that content - therefore you are not entitled to it. I am just making sure I get the whole issue that I paid for in the store.You did.  And your friend got what he paid for.  What you think you are entitled to is not in fact what the publisher is giving you to buy at the retailer. If the publisher put everything in it like they are suposted to, then I would not be forced to do that. This is something I find very stupid, and at the risk of violating the conduct guidelines on this board I think your arrogance is rather childish.YOU ARE NOT FORCED TO DO ANYTHING.YOU are the one chosing to do this.  You have the option not to buy.  YOU have the option of (spending less money) subscribing to the magazine.  The world does not revolve around YOU.- Ma'at</blockquote>
