I had a subscription that I didn't ask for for Wired, actually.  I had 
subscribed to "Maximum Linux" and when the magazine was canceled, instead 
of refunding the undelivered portion of the subscription or providing the 
inconvenienced subscribers with a choice, they just automatically decided 
that filling with any subscription would be fine, so why not Wired?

It was OK.  Not great, but it was OK.
