That may be true, but a fair chunk of the supposedly all-Aussie mag, Sky & Space, is no more than a regurgitation of the articles in Sky & Telescope. That's why I rarely buy S&S. If you flick through S&S at the newsagent's after having read AS&T, most of it will look very familiar. Like you say, why buy two copies of virtually the same stuff?
