10. If you answered yes above, who do you like this magazine?

For this, I got a variety of answers such as:

• Feature my favourite bands
• Free posters
• It speaks my language
• Good feature articals and interviews
• It's funny
• Gives a good sum up of things without going on about it for too long.
• Like reading the live reviews

With these results, I have decided that making a Indie/Rock magazine is the best thing to do. It will priced between £2.50-£3, as clearly my target audience don't mind paying a bit extra for a good quality magazine. I'll make sure to get the picture on the OFC right because that's why people mainly buy a magazine. It will be a weekly magazine. Also, in the layout, I think the images will dominant the page more than the copy for my main article.
