I want to subscribe to one of these mags and I want to know what some of you read. If I'm missing another good read mention it. Thanks.

I think both are good mag. I really enjoy MacWorld, though (my opinion). I haven't read MacAddict in a long time and so I can't compare the two, I just really like MacWorld, that's all.

Mac Addict is a sister-pub to Maximum PC, which I currently subscribe to. Maximum PC is a little harder-edged than something like PC World, and makes the read way more interesting. I'm not looking to hack my soon-to-be new iMac, but I do appreciate in-depth writing and something a little "different", every so often.

I don't read a lot of the Mac World Mags, but i do read the MacAddict mag and it is very good.

Macworld, hands down.
MacAddict and their constant need to bash everything PC gets annoying after a while. It makes me feel like I'm reading something written by an obsessed teenager.

MacAddict is a great mag, I love the annual April Fools Jokes. They do have cool tips for Final Cut every once and a while, and I like the reviews. Macworld seems a little too formal for me.

To me the fact that even our own MacAddikt likes Mac World better says something! :spook:
On a more serious note, Reading all that people here have said makes me want to try out Mac Addict. I do not like magazines like PC World as I have always felt them to be Biased against AMD for one example and a bit stuffy also. I have had a subscription to Mac World and liked it, but think I will try out Mac Addict and see how they are.
