I think just once. I seem to recall someone saying they subscribed, their Kindle broke, and when they got it fixed they were unable to subscribe again.

You can do a trial of a specific magazine or paper once. If you try to re-trial, they will put you on as a subscriber.

you can now zoom on any picture and have it take the whole screen. Nice I did not find it worth while without WN but a great joy when on road trip in CA. which is why I only free sampled - road trips are not that long.

It's not that I don't trust it's that I didn't want to lose my trial.

Since my advice was "just the once," listening to me does the opposite of making you lose your trial.  Smiley
