Hi Stefan,

thanks for the information... i was actually at the BOOM website when  
i saw the original post and did not find the international  
subscriptions area. to be truthful, even after seeing your links, i  
found that their website is really not very user friendly...

but more importantly, basically, anyone that wants to subscribe  
Mickey+Donald pays 40$+40$ per 5 magazines each, right?

from what i saw on their website, they will send one magazine per  
month? how does that work?

most of the magazines i receive from the US are 6 issues per year and  
cost around 22$US for US subscribers or around 34$US for international  
subscribers, which falls more or less in line with the BOOM prices...  
the difference is that on the historynet.com magazines i receive  
something with 100+ A4 pages in color, instead of a 14 page A5 comic....

Also, they do seem to have a better business model, with special  
packages and discounts... because they do volume discounts for people  
that subscribe more than one magazine, i ended up subscribing 2, then  
3 and now i receive 4 different magazines... i´m a subscriber for 5  
years already and i intend to keep renewing...

perhaps if BOOM made a 60$ Mickey+Donald subscription, i would  
subscribe to both... as it is, 40$ to receive just one is not  
interesting enough and 80$ to get both is too expensive...
