More and more magazines are creating digital versions of their paper offerings, and many use Zinio Reader to deliver these to you.
Zinio offers everything you would expect from a PDF, plus a bit more. For starters, pages are turned just as they are in a paper magazine, and links abound throughout the copy.
For example, click on a link on the contents page and you are taken directly to the relevant article.
The reader is free and comes with a sample magazine (not a real title) to give you an idea of its features.
Version 3 is an improvement on previous versions, with both the reader and magazines being much smaller to download. It also comes with a new interface, complete with integrated search. This lets you search a single document or your entire magazine archive.
Numerous magazines are available via subscription, including our own titles IT Week, PCW, Computeractive and PC Magazine.

Zinio Reader Version 3 is EVIL
A classic example that New does not always mean better. Version 3 is slower and more buggy than the old version. The only NEW features will be useless to most people who just want to read their magazines. The reader can only be installed via web Downloads everytime. There is no Offline installer. Stay with version 1.6 (or earlier). All the magazines will still work with it for now.
