After spending some time with mine, or at least its first issue, I can say it feels like more of a prelude to a focus group than a legitimate business model. Still, a quick survey of the magazine, with special attention paid to its handling of Sports Illustrated, since that's the only eligible title to which I subscribe, sheds light on the recent debate over ad-editorial boundaries.
