It covers a wide range of subject matter from politics to the entertainment industry. Since the magazine's inception, Time has been known for its annual "Person of the Year" issue. It is oftentimes controversial, counting Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin among it previous recipients, recognizing the individual or group that has had the most impact on the world stage.

It's TIME for a 5 star rating

Review Date: March 13, 2010

Reviewer: C. Green, Colorado Springs, CO United States

It's TIME (sorry) to give the mag a 5 star rating .......

I received my 22 Mar 10 Kindle issue 2 days before the paper version showed up in the mail ..... ALL the articles were present in the Kindle version ......... ALL of the major article pictures were present in the Kindle version ..... MOST of the sidebar, secondary, smaller pictures out of the print mag were included in the Kindle version ...... you get a full page shot of the cover ..... and a TOC comparable (but not exact) to the print version .......

Color? .... no, but then you know that .......Fold it up and shove it in your back pocket at the airport or park? ...... no, but then you know that ...... I believe it takes a bit longer getting used to reading mags on the Kindle then paperback books ......... size, gloss, pictures, etc .......

Price? ..... yes it is a bit more than the print version .... I guess it doesn't matter to me as much as it does to a number of other users ........ it is still less than you could buy it off the news stand ....... and if you are not at the subscriber address .. i.e. flying, out-of-town ..... I consider the effortless delivery to my Kindle (where ever I am ) worth the money ......

All in all a very good ebook translation folks .........

Time Magazine rules!

I love reading the Time news articles
offered on the Kindle. I don't miss
the charts/pictures/ads, and the price
is perfect.

Quite Good

Reviewer: Marek Petrik,

The formatting is a little off, but most of the content is there. Since there are no ads in the kindle version, it is even easier to read than the paper one. Defnitely worth the price.

Everything a Time "READER" needs.

If you love your Time magazine and hate advertisements...this Kindle edition is for you. It has all the articles and no stupid advertisements. I see a lot of reviews about lack of photos...if your get a Time magazine for pictures, you are plainly missing the point of a Kindle. The Kindle is designed for "READERS"...not for pre-schoolers who like colored pictures. For $1.50 for four issues a month...I give this five stars.

Much Better than Reviews Led Me to Expect

Review Date: December 1, 2009

Reviewer: Kathryn L. Evans, Caroga Lake, New York United States

I almost didn't subscribe to get Time Magazine for $1.49 per month because of the negative reviews, but then I thought, for 35 cents per issue, I would give it a try. I am extremely glad I did! It is true, there are only a few illustrations included, and I don't know if the content is edited to account for that fact, but whatever the case, I find I don't miss them while reading. In fact, I am one of those people who mostly buys magazines because I like the pictures and charts, and often don't read the articles. Obviously, with the Kindle format, that is not an option, but I am surprised by how easy and quickly I read the articles in the Kindle format, how much I enjoy them, and that I don't miss the "visuals." In fact, I am probably getting a lot more out of the magazine than when I just flipped through the pictures and captions. Also, the price is remarkably low for all you get. I have no association with "Time," I'm just a bureaucrat from upstate NY, but I wanted to balance those negative reviews with my very positive experience!
