I think you must be, as subscriptions to the the print and digital magazines
are mutually exclusive.

Thank you for your loyalty. The print magazine is not going away, though
an increasing proportion of our subscribers has switched to digital. This
is due in part, I believe, to the fact that the reproduction of blacks
and whites has better contrast on-screen than on paper and, of course,
there is no show-through from what is printed on the other side of the
paper. Printed URLs also become "live."

I suspect that this aspect of the Asylum is because unlike editors of
other publications, I believe in being responsive to criticism from my
readers. Which leads to more criticism. :-(
