This Just Isn’t In

I received the latest Sound & Vision only to find that the news has been removed. I’m referring, of course, to the “This Just In…” section. Those little tidbits were really informative. Please bring them back. While I’m at it, I want to remind you that most of us subscribe to S&V so that we can make informed purchases. The magazine used to feature a two-page list of recommended products. Since I’m in the market for a new UHD Blu-ray player, it would be great if you reintroduced this feature, or at least provided an index to products featured in past issues. Carrington Mcveigh via email The decision to remove the This Just In… section was based on the magazine’s new bimonthly publication schedule. News needs to be timely, and with the mag now coming out once every two months, any news reporting we’d provide would inevitably be stale. As for a recommended products list, that’s something of a relic of the pre-web era. I’d advise you to instead check out the regularly updated lists of Top Picks posted on soundandvision.com. You’ll find it to be a far more useful resource, one that also provides handy links to full reviews for each recommended product.— AG
