Somehow, I think it wouldn't take kindly to being curled up behind the TP

Yes, but as Jerry intimated, one simply cannot take one's computer into the
men's room.

but people likely spend 10x as much time reading from a computer screen than
reading from paper. My guess is magazine publishers would get more
readership if their stuff was accessible in small chunks, linked to from
message boards like this one.

It is probably also most important that the advertiser gets the page views
that they want. An ad in a magazine cant be clicked on like an online ad
can.

if they only printed articles.



I'm getting a lot of mags electronically now but they're the same
electronically as if I had them in hard copy.  Some of the electronic
reader
technology (especially being used in newspapers!) is really decent.
