Re: Don't forget there are other magazines...

I suppose that there are some bad webzines out there, but I've had fine experiences with most of the webzines. The one I've had the most dealings with has been SoundStage, and they have been nothing but honorable. The worst experience I've personally had was with a print magazine.

A video-oriented magazine that had scheduled one of our products for review. We were then informed that there was a change in policy, and only manufacturers that advertised would have their products reviewed. We were mulling this over when the advertising rep called us to pressure us into placing the ad. He assured us that, as an advertiser, we were assured of getting a "good" review. We politely told him no, thanks.

To their everlasting credit, two of their top audio reviewers promptly quit when the new policy was announced.
