That sounds about right; I remember very much liking the Listener's current affairs coverage when I lived with my parents, didn't read it for a year in the Halls of Residence, and then was very disappointed in it when Tui and I went flatting and she had a subscription. That was 2004-2006, and it's never been the same since.
I remember someone on the Public Address forums concluding that the ideal Listener cover nowadays would be "Does My House Price Look Fat In This?", with a smaller feature on "NCEA: Failing Our Children, or Crippling Them?". It'd be funny if it hadn't once been a decent read.
