Maghound, a customizable magazine service from Time Inc., is now available. From Folio:

The membership pricing is tiered-- three titles for $4.95 a month, five titles for $7.95, seven titles for $9.95, and $1 per title for eight titles or more. Memberships can be entirely managed online, as well as by email and phone, from changing magazine title selections to updating personal information and placing magazine delivery on hold for a temporary period.

Maghound allows customers to mix and match magazines, but it does not integrate with current subscriptions. From the Maghound FAQ:

Maghound is a completely independent magazine service. Ordering through us does not affect any current subscriptions you may already have. So, if you order a magazine through us that you already subscribe to, you will receive a duplicate copy.
