What Happened?

Rolling Stone magazine sold "lifetime subscriptions" to consumers — a promise of permanent, ongoing access to the publication. The lawsuit alleged Rolling Stone or its parent company violated those lifetime subscription agreements, potentially by significantly reducing publication frequency, changing the format, or otherwise failing to deliver what a "lifetime subscription" promised.

This type of case — a company selling "lifetime" access and then failing to honor it — is particularly compelling to consumers because the alleged breach is clear-cut: you paid for forever, and it stopped. The settlement provides concrete benefits rather than a cash payment.

Eligible lifetime subscribers receive automatic benefits including continued print delivery and two years of digital access. No action is required beyond verifying your subscription status at the official settlement website.

How Much Will I Actually Get?

Rather than a cash fund, eligible lifetime subscribers receive settlement benefits: continued print magazine delivery plus two years of digital access. Because there is no filing deadline, this is a purely automatic distribution requiring no action from eligible subscribers beyond confirming their status at RS-Settlement.com.
