    Reason #22 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it gives you the most recent reviews on AMPS, SPEAKERS, and DVDS, etc. Some of which are not available in the U.K at the time of publication. I enjoy your reviews of recently released DVDs. I am a keen fan of your magazine. Thanks for a great magazine.
