Fifty quid man

This was created by a man called David Hepworth. The magazine 'The Word' was founded by David Hepworth, however during 2010 the magazine stopped being sold. The idea of the fifty quid man was due to the fact men used to go into shops and spend around £50 on music. However due to all of the technology that is now around this no longer occurs. I have always used technology for most things in life, as we are become to rely on technology more and more. Music now gets listened to on youtube, spotify and iTunes. It is no longer common for younger people to have CDs collections like people used to. New music is now purchased from things like the iTunes store rather than going into shops like HMV and buying the CDs. This is the same for what is occurring to the magazine industry, magazines are not starting to publish online rather than having paper copies as people are no longer purchasing them due to everything being done on technology. These factors have to be throughout about when creating my magazine. What I am going to have to include in order to make my magazine stand out from the rest. What is going to make people pick my magazine up when they can read others at the click of a button on their smart phone. Due to technology the ways in which we are now doing things is changing.
