Magazine apps?

Which magazine app do you use if any? Do you use Apple's Newsstand or the Google offerings? Thanks to Bob for the question.

I've only used Zinio. If a travelled by train or bus I might use others.

None. Most of the magazines I read are as expensive, more expensive than the paper versions or not available in a decent reader (horrible reading experience and unreliable in-app purchases for magazines that ARE available)

None. I just get the PDFs and use a PDF reader.

I use Zinio. I find their prices very reasonable. Especially UK magazines that cost a ridiculous amount on the newsstands here in Canada. The reader is very good, not excellent. I'm still waiting for the ability to bookmark and cut articles. Things look especially sharp on the new iPad.

I use Zinio too, although I'm only subscribed to T3. Shortly after doing so I found out that T3 has an app, which is the magazine with loads of interactive stuff. Not happy that I'm stuck with the flat version.

The app was crap when I first tried it, at least in terms of creating an account and paying for something. For the actual reading of magazines it's fine. It's more comfortable on the tablet but it's ok on the S3 too. My gf's decided to get a Note 2 and it should be better on that.
