This argument is not correct. Consumer Reports does not take advertising. It
is entirely subscriber supported. However, their test methods are not always
what you would expect. I remember many years ago, they tested clock radios
and rated them according to sound quality. There was no consideration for
how convenient the alarm portion was! If I want a good sounding radio, I
would not get a clock radio. Enough said. Use the info as it may be
suitable.

Another thing to keep in mind, the magazine likely has Norton and McAfee
as paid advertisers, and thus has incentive to rate them above the 'free'
AVG and Avast, for which they get no ad revenue.
