Not spam and not a true statement - you don't have to pay a cent to access it - just as
free as Chockstone or Supertopo, or Qurank, or a pile of climber community sites.
In the first issue interview with the Editor we have the following:

"How much will the magazine cost?

The magazine will always be free for the people as long as it is on the web. At some
point, if rthere is enough interest, I would like to get some advertising money that
would sustain the production of the magazine and allow it to expand to wherever it
needs to go.

The magazine will always be free? How do people ge the magazine? The magazine
is going to run off a web site (scmagazine.ca) where people can download the
magazine as a free PDF file. .... At some point I may look into printing a limited
number of copies, but that would depend on interest or unless someone wins the
lottery and donates a ton of money to the magazine."

Indeed there is advertising in the mag - which one assumes goes towards covering
production costs.
