I'm want to get a subscription to either macworld or macaddict magazine...I don't know much about either magazine so I thought I'd put this out to the forum for opinions.....like which has the most content and such.

When i started with my Mac i bought several issues of MacAddict, and some of MacWorld. I think MacAddict is more "instructive" than MacWorld, MacWorld is more related to product reviews/introductions. Right now i don't buy them any more, there is enough information in this forums, Apple website, Egadget and Gizmodo to require them. I still buy some MacAddicts specials from time totime, some of them have taught me a lot about Macs and is good to have some printed references.

I tried both, but I found that they are a waste of money.

I subscribe to Mac Addict the software discs are kinda nice, but nothing you can't get off the net for free anyway usually.

I do like the UNIX University section and the how-tos.

I had the same problem. When I first purchased my Mac's I couldn't decide so I just purchased a subscription to both.

Just in case you haven't seen them yet.... you can get magazine subscriptions on ebay. I got both macworld and macaddict for pennies on the dollar. I got a 2 year for mac addict for 7.95 and a 1 year to macworld for 9 bucks. Tons cheaper than through the mags themselves.

just an FYI
