I took the High Life and Business Life from my seat last night. I dont see anything wrong with that. I've paid for the ticket, and they are cheap mass-produced consumable products.

Reiterating what I said about the lounges, I don't see any problem in taking a newspaper or magazine (in moderation) from the lounge. I have done many times. I always see staff in lounges collecting the read newspapers and throwing them away rather than replacing them on the pile of fresh newspapers. Nobody wants to read a battered newspaper anyway.

Newspapers/magazines are in a totally different league to a bottle of champagne.
