IMHO the Internet has made it much easier to gain knowledge or get a question answered.
If I want to be entertained, I read a magazine (currently subscribe to four).
If I want to find out how to fireform cases, what scope to put on a certain rifle, how to book an African hunt, etc., I ask on the Internet.
One problem with magazines is that it's hard to get a valid evaluation of new products. Every new item is just great, perhaps because an advertiser introduced it, and there is seldom any criticism of anything. Not the case on the Internet, though you have to take some opinions with a grain of salt.
