New York, NY – December 9, 2006 – GotFrag.com, Inc., in partnership with Beckett Media, is pleased to announce the release of eSports, the first eSports magazine in the United States. eSports hits the news stands later this month and will cater to anyone and everyone that follows the eSports scene.

UPDATE: We have had several inquiries to support paypal subscriptions. Unfortunately, due to the way that Paypal handles address verification, we cannot support Paypal subscriptions at this time. We may add it in later, but the issues with address verification (essentially a manual process) would lead to too many risks ranging from Fraud to the wrong shipping addresses which we don't feel it would be responsible to undertake. However, after CPL, we will have a printable form which you can send in for your subscriptions.
