±12 Are there too many diskmags?
±13-------------------------------------
±12by Dolphin
±11Do you really think there are too
many diskmagazines in the scene
today? I must say that I don't think
so. Just think about all the mags
who have quit:±12 Zine, D.I.S.C, I.C.E,
Reader's Dream, Magbox and
Free'n'Easy. ±11 And we have even more
if we concider the diskmagazines we
haven't seen for a long, long time:
±13McDisk, Nordic Report, Stolen Data
and Eternal.±11 For all we know, they
could be dead as well. I know that
all the mentioned diskmags weren't
exactly quality mags, but they were
mags nevertheless, and they
represented the wide specter the
scene should have. If there were no
diskmagazines at all, I think the
scene would have been quite boring,
maybe even non excisting.
And what have all these dead diskmags
been replaced with? Packmags,
packseries with advertisment-sections
and generally low quality
productions, because there is much
less work to be done in releasing
these. I think the scene should be
grateful that there are any diskmags
at all, and they should continue, or
begin to support them if they want to
keep diskmagazines.
I have to say that there have been a
couple of diskmags borned lately as
well. I can mention some: ±12 Megazine,
Propaganda, ±13 Headline,±12 Playbyte. ±11 I
find this development interesting and
I'm thrilled about it! Don't forget
that the scene needs diskmags, not
just Eurocharts, Worldcharts and
nazi-propaganda-Packmags.
I don't get all the diskmags in the
scene regularly, but I'd love to
review new diskmags, so if you like
you can send your latest issue of a
diskmag to me and I'll review it here
in Headline. Thanks for listening....ç
