Doubtful information

I find it very doubtful that the first magazine in the UK that used subscription was from the 1960's. You will find numerous subscriptionlists in magazines from all of Europe (including the UK) in the 1600s and 1700s. Also, the method was pioneered within bookpublishing not the magazine businees, with the first known example being with the publication of John Minsheus Ductor in linguas in 1609. --Saddhiyama (talk) 11:32, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Seriously flawed article

This article lacks any understanding of subscription as a general underwriting of the costs of an undertaking, particularly as the entry for plain vanilla 'subscription' redirect here. "Subscription business model" is a subset of what subscriptions can be.
