What Would Get You to Subscribe to Dungeon?

There's no print version because the online Dragon and Dungeon are meant to be inducements to sign up for the DDI and continually visit the WoTC website. Plus, I doubt that WoTC wanted to go through the hassle of actual magazine publishing.

Technically no one knows about that yet. DDI may still be a single package once all the suite of tools is ready, and there may be no such thing as magazine only subscriptions to it. Either you take all of DDI or get none of it is quite possible.
 

I subscribe to two other magazines. New Scientist and Fine Scale Modeler. Both also have an on line component to the magazine that have extra photos, articles, and expansions on the stuff in the print version. To get to the exclusive material you must have a subscription to get to it. If you don't you can enjoy the site with limited access.

I think that the D&D market is large enough to follow this sort of model.
 

I will go with the flow and say print magazines, although largely I would only get it out of habit. WotC taking the license from Paizo actually freed up my money to use on other hobbies, and in most cases Paizo still gets my dollar.
 

Besides the standard request of wanting a print magazine over a digital one (but would not mind a print magazine with digital extras) I would prefer a magazine that covers more than just 4e. Articles for older editions would be great, as would articles for other game systems. Actually, if they did an adventure once in awhile for older editions, that would be a good motivation for getting it.

I really want stuff I can use. Short adventures, sort of sidetrack adventures. Nothing elaborate, just some nice diversions. Also some NPCs with an interesting background (just not tied to any one setting). I like the idea of tokens for all the creatures in an adventure, that would be great. Oh, and while we are at it, some interesting maps, both marked and unmarked, to use in making my own adventures.
 

I'd subscribe if it had adventures for other games in the d20 diaspora (True20, C&C, Arcana Unearthed, etc). I realize this will never happen, but it'd be cool.
