I guess there are a number of different reasons:
- Target audience: With the placement of an ad in a magazine, you know who will be reading it. Sports magazines, fashion magazines, whatever...the genre is set and usually the demographics are too.
- Circulation: You are sending the message to where you audience is, and not paying for delivery to people that could care less about your product. If it was a pamphlet or flier in the letter box, it would hit the bin - the magazine will at least be read.
- Value: Generally, magazines hang around. Not many people flick through one, and pitch it. Re-reading articles or showing them to other members of the family/friends, gives the magazine a shelf life that far outweighs other media.
I hope my opinion is of some assistance.

Hi
The advantage of magazines over other print advertising is they have a longer shelf life and are often viewed multiple times and passed around to family and friends.
