These are either for a pre-paid number of issues or infinite. Both types can be cancelled by unsubscribing, but the money for a pre-paid one will not be returned. Whenever a new issue is released, it will be sent to the subscribee via the parcel-service. With an unlimited subscription the paper is authorized to withdraw the money for each issue from your bank account(s). -= WARNING=- Unlimited subscriptions are subject to possible changes of the newspaper's price. It is also possible to aquire newspaper boxes. When placed in a house, trained imps will deliver new issues directly to the box. Each box is bought with enough demon-bait for a given number of issues and cannot be refilled. An international box uses stronger bait, allowing the imps to find it even if the newspaper-office and the house are on different continents. .EI .SH Examples .SI 5 > subscribe to The Fluff You subscribe to The Fluff.
