Netflix for magazine

Time Inc is launching a service called Maghound, where you pay a monthly subscriber fee and can pick a certain number of magazines to get that month, out of a stable of 300 magazines (at launch). So you can pay $5 to get any three magazines, and so on and you can change which magazines you get each month. I wonder if you'd be able to see what the cover/contents of the magazine look like before you choose which magazines you want.

I don't think I get any Time Inc magazines, but they do have a bunch of big hitters like Sports Illustrated. I think the tomcat will love this since he loves magazines.
