i think its a great idea. i like pasmag.
A far as commercial ads. any mag you get, it will be about 50% ad's.
very few mags are a 50/50 ads/content the only book i know is a for sure 50/50 is Modified. we make sure that there is always the right amout of ads to content! super street and import tuner aswell as PAS MAG have way more ads to content! nonetheless the guys over at pas are pretty cool and the mag is good for a canadian market and advertisers
