I've only subscribed to SCD for a couple years, but it bothers me that I never seem to see much of anything 'controversial,' i.e. things that might make their advertisers mad. Whether this is intended or not I can't say, but there is a glaring lack of real tough 'journalism' involved here.

I mean, you can hear all sorts of terrible stuff about various companies, auction houses, and whatever on message boards and such, but nary a word about it in SCD. What kind of 'Voice for the Hobby' is this?

A lot of the 'articles' read like little more than glowing advertisements for whoever happens to be featured this week. It's quite sad, really...

I wish there were more alternatives, especially for people who specialize more in vintage signatures (although I do some prewar cards 'on the side').
