No it's true. Alot of the forum members on Dakka Dakka and Bells of Lost Souls that I know of, seem to keep getting WD in the mail, so I take it they keep renewing. Why? No idea, maybe it's they need to keep paying GW for their brochure as you say.  .

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

service announcement? what service announcement?
The one that was posted on the GW website back in late June and sent out in emails when they made the changes to the mailing policy. It may also have been in a somewhat recent issue of White Dwarf. Here it is: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?categoryId=&pIndex=1&aId=16900014a&multiPageMode=true&start=2 White Dwarf Release Dates In order to align product releases globally, White Dwarf will be on sale on the last Saturday of each month (ie White Dwarf August will be for sale on July 30th). In-store subscribers will also be able to pick up their magazine at the store on that Saturday. In-home subscriptions will be shipped on the last Saturday of each month (ie White Dwarf August will ship on July 30th). You can expect to see your copy of White Dwarf within ten days from shipment. If you have any questions or don't receive your White Dwarf within ten days from the last Saturday of the month, please call Customer Service at 1-800-394-4263 or email custserv@games-workshop.com. This went into effect for August's White Dwarf #379.

I just read it in Tescos a few days to a week before those chumps that subscribe or go to a GW store. 
I have though bought the last 4 issues for the related release articles, nontheless there's nothing there to support a subscription.

Hey Worglock,
Thanks for stepping up on an anti- WD thread. I hope we can ask this of you without having folks get on your case, but would you mind telling what you like about White Dwarf that keeps you buying it?
Thanks!

I actually still buy it myself. Largely out of completionist issues.

I'm letting my subscription run its course and let it expire.
The White Dwarf Magazine doesn't seem that interesting anymore. Does anyone even read the Battle Reports? I just skip over them.

GW WW added this to their Facebook page..
If you've seen the White Dwarf subscription miniature pictured in White Dwarf, you may know that it's so stunningly painted that some people say we edited and fiddled the picture. The Citadel Miniatures Hall now holds the truth...... Joe IS that terrifyingly talented that he can paint WD pages on spaces smaller than 1cm long. Pop in to see for yourself.
You get a better look at the painted WD pages.
.. Astonishing.
