>Is it just me or has Pinnacle decided to increase the volume of renewal notices being sent out to non-subscribers? It's like their mail computer has gone insane...

Are they doing the same for all their publications? I mean are they as agressive with their .net magazines? It could be interesting to do a little survey about their other magazines.

What was their subscriber base for fox or access (those two seems to be the problem so far) magazines.

Perhaps they want to stop making those two and this is the wacky way they found to stop making them. They send gazillions of letters so subscriber and ex-subscriber and the subscfribers and ex-subscribers get angry and stop or not renew their subscriptions. After that with practically no subscriber base it's easy to go see the BOSS and tell him that it's a waste of time to continue making those magazines.

Just an idea like that. You know sometimes there are so many levels in an enterprise that managers at a given level can do what they want. So for whatever reason somebody does'nt like to see FOX and ACCESS magazine continuing to be distributed.
