The expression you used implies that it was a deliberate action on Joe Roberts' part. I think that's really unfair.Ask anyone who's tried to run their own small business what it's like - money bleeding away regularly and seemingly endlessly but money coming in intermittently at best. Watch your wife's reaction when you put her house on the line chasing your dream - it's not pretty.
As an indication of Joe's commitment, look at the way he put what should have been issue 17 up on the web for free.
To err is human, to moo, bovine (anon)

many people sent mony after the mag stopped and those checks were cashed and product was never shipped.THAT is really unfair.
I agree with you Robert. I paid for a SP subscription and received one or two issues before it ceased publication. Even the AUDIO CRITIC made good on subscriptions, even if it was 8 years between issues! They folded, started up again and honored the remaining issues on the old subscriptions.Gerry
I was so slow in renewing I did not get screwed. But I made copies of full magazines for people who tried to order backissues at/near the end and never saw product even though the checks got cashed. The correct thing for Joe to do would have been to return those checks.Glad at least some audio mags have honorable dealings.
