Not physical copies...

But I enjoy the Halifax Herald, the National Post, the New York Times, and The American Conservative.

I do like paging through magazines.. but i don't subscribe or regularly read any.  Still.. I'm a tactile person.. I believe in the ease and efficiency of getting this stuff online... but still enjoy the feeling of paging through a magazine or book.

Like how smokers miss the mechanical motions of smoking.

Motor Trend, Car and Driver, Automobile.
I get C&D off and on, currently off.  I like Road and Track too.  Motor Trend and Automobile are too.....polished?  I don't know, never really liked them as much as C&D and R&T.

That's the only hard copy magazine I read, and even then, I don't read much of it.  I keep 'em for reference, but I keep all most of my magazines.  I have car magazines from the 80s.

I will read the Wall Street Journal if its around but primarily for the finance and investing portions of the paper. Their editorials are usually just center right nonsense with idiots like Karl Rove getting space every week or so. Obviously there are some better ones out there, but I generally stay away from their opinion pieces.

Their hard news reporting is good though.

Yes, daily.

The left-liberal Austrian "Standard" and the "Economist" (weekly).

Not since I moved (I haven't and won't subscribe to the Tallahassee Democrat as I am very short on cash), but I used to read the Palm Beach Post daily for ten years.

Get all my news and professional info via the internet, but I religiously get physical version of Mojo and read it from cover, and always get 5 or 6 other magazines @ B&N when I get my Mojo, could be other Music mags, or Science or History, or Entertainment, or an Oxford American.  For whatever reason, British magazines frequently seem much more interesting than any American counterpart.

I'm surprised that so few others actually do.

I no longer carry any subscriptions as I just don't have the time to read them, and they usually just pile up, plus I pretty much just use the Internet for information. If I'm in a public place and there's a local paper nearby, I snag it up and look through it. That's about it.

Really, the only consistent time I read something that isn't on my computer or phone it's at work on the pooper or out smoking (can't have phones in the building)...and I generally stick to novels for that.  And because I'm an asshole, it's mostly sh**t I've already read.
