Evaluation Part 5: Transformation Of Physical Music Magazine To A Virtual State

As technology is rapidly taking over, there is no point in even defying that the paper magazine will ever become extinct as we're currently in the process of this happening. Both computers and iPads are changing the way fo how we read our magazine drastically which means the price of the magazine will be lowered as manufacturing and material prices such as paper and printing won't be existent. To make sure that my magazine even has a chance at staying on the market, I need to think in advance and make sure that I have a website built and to also make sure that my magazine is available through the iBook store to all of my customers and target audiences.


Website


www.envynv.com

Website Information:


- Free to all members of the public
- Free content that is given away on the website won't cause a loss of money to the company as an income from the website can be made using advertisements from other companies.
- Only so much free content will be offered on the website. For example, an exclusive story will only be part-visible with the rest only then being offered with a direct link to the iBook store or a subscription offer for the magazine.




iPad/iBook Store

After researching on the internet, I have come to discover that the pricing of music magazines on the iBook store are reasonably cheap and are normally reduced by 20%. From this, I have come to the conclusion that I will charge £2.00 for the Envy Music Magazine on both Amazon Kindle & Apple's iBook store.
