> (From the article) I found that having a physical paper show up at my door made me more likely to read it.

So true. I had the same experience with magazines. Growing up, I would have a magazine in my hand all the time. Somewhere in between, I moved on to digital versions, but it just hasn't been the same experience. I also feel I retain information much better given that a physical copy has fewer distractions compared to 10 open tabs and banners and snippets and what not while reading online. I haven't bought a physical magazine in quite some time, maybe it is time to try them again.

I recently picked up a copy of a magazine from a Little Free Library and ended up reading it cover to cover.

It made me wonder if someone younger than me (I'm right on the line between GenX and Millennial) would have the same experience, or if they wouldn't be as interested in a physical copy because they weren't raised reading them.
