Last week I discovered Magnation (88 Elizabeth St, next to Hudsons Coffee close to Collins St).

What an amazing magazine store. They apparently have access to over 4000 titles and it's spread over 2 levels with lots of areas where you can just sit down and read.

And to top it off, free Wifi access. Noticed quite a few people taking advantage of this.

Anybody else know of a better place to get your magazines?

Hey Melbournefan,

Magnation is great, there is also one at Chadstone Shopping Center. It's located in the new section just near Toys R Us.

The one in the city is not really new though, i've been going there for a while. I still prefer good old McGills on Elizabeth street just across the road from GPO. It doesn't have as good a range of magazines, but it has all the technical books which i really like to read as well.

It amazes me how stores like Magnation make money. You can just browse any magazine over a coffee and never buy it.

I must say I prefer Borders for their selection of magazines. AJ, McGills has really gone down hill last couple of years since they shuffled the store layout around. I dont find anywhere near as much content.
