I dabbled with MacWorld, and was stung by the fact they don't offer the CD to the subscription [CDs are cheap, I don't see why magazines charge so much, they don't charge _that_ much in the UK for the DVDs].
Without the CD, I found MacWorld to be next to useless and let the subscription lapse. MacAddict did seem okay, but in general the mac magazines at the time seemed to be focused on expensive software and OS 9 software. They seemed to have moved to OS X now, but still focus on their main consumer range, graphics designers and home users, to be of a lot of interest.
