Can't agree. I've been a reader since high school and well into college. Subscribed for a few years after and eventually stopped.
It's a lot of "water" with 1-2 worthwhile articles per issue at best. It's also extremely biased in more ways than one, trying to please its target audience as much as they can as opposed to challenging their views (which good journalism is supposed to, else what's the point).
BTW, even if you don't like Newsstand for consuming news, keep in mind that following topics and publications in Newsstand (eg. https://newsstand.google.com/my/library) also affects the cards shown in the Google App feed (née Google Now), and the Newsstand web UI is much easier to use for managing/following lots of topics.
I'm less certain as to how data about in-feed user actions ("Recommend fewer stories like this" and similar affordances) are shared between the two venues. It seems intermittent or episodic, rather than continuous.
