Newsstand app on new iPad driving me nuts

    So since I got the new iPad (my only iPad) I've bought a few magazines in Newsstand (Namely Retro Gamer and Paleo Magazine (1 year sub)).

    I buy and download an issue and a few days (or less) later and then damn issues are gone. Just now, after downloading (again) five issues they no longer have the view option beside them. Instead they have the Download option!

    I have to keep downloading them over and over. Doable with a few issues when I am at home with my wi-fi but a kick in the nuts when I am away from home :mad:

    Has anybody any idea of how I might solve this ? :(

    Are they disappearing after you sync with iTunes perhaps?

    No just (seemingly) randomly. Funnily enough I think I figured it out after I posted last night :)

    I google and then googled some more. It seems it's an iOS feature to remove newstand mags when system storage is low... And I am generally running low on space. I'll try not to let it run low for a bit and hopefully the mags will stay.
