85509 2002-10-02 21:40:00 I am an avid reader of NZ PC World Magazine & as such I have loads of the mags and am often looking things up out of them. I often takes a lot of time to find what I want & because of constant use my Mags are falling to pieces. Wouldn't it be great if the PC World Mag gave you a copy of the mag in .pdf format on the cover CD. Let me hear your thoughts on this. DOMWLC (1531)
85510 2002-10-02 21:43:00 I doubt it'd happen, because Cover CDs are often copied, given/loaned to friends etc. It'd mean they wouldn't need to buy the magazine themselves if they want to read it, cause they could just read it straight off the copied CD.

85512 2002-10-02 22:44:00 also the whole mag as pdf would be HUGE. but then if you have a scanner....... tweak'e (174)

You can read it straight off the website too, without paying. Esp. if you have banner ads turned off.

They could just include advertising to make it pay.
