Besides arxiv which is free, the last time I looked at papers properly was when I was a graduate student.
so, of course I had free access to virtually everything.
It’s not really cost effective to subscribe to an individual journal and the topics across an entire journal are not as focused as you might think.
there’s a lot of irrelevant stuff published compared to your specific research (the purpose of these papers is to publish very specific articles and you read them to help you with your own very specific research.)
Alls to say it’s an odd question because an individual wouldn’t really subscribe to a specific journal, like you would with a magazine or periodical.
Well, there's _TUGboat_, the journal of the TeX User's Group --- free with a membership (or membership is free w/ a subscription), but it's rather specialized, and a non-profit thing.
