Bookazines ... are normally defined as products sold exclusively on newsstands for impulse buying, outside the normal publication schedule, with little or no advertising (and no rate base). While enjoying a longer shelf-life than magazines, they are available for a limited time only. They are traditionally seen as not suitable for libraries, bulk sales or controlled distribution, and are normally spinoffs of a subscription magazine.
