The TUGboat is a very valuable resource, something no TeX/LaTeX user
should be without.  The dues/subscription rate for TUG/TUGboat are $45
(less for students).  While this might seem a bit high compared to
something like Byte, remember the volume and advertising both have a
significant effect on cost (Byte seems to be about half adds to me).
Also, I just sent in a check for over $100 to the IEEE, so $45 isn't
so bad...
