jmag music magazine goes monthly

jmag.JPGI’m surprised that jmag is going monthly. The music category is as challenged in the magazine space as it is for over the counter CDs. Music retailers are scrambling to find products to cover the collapse of CDs. In the magazine space, general titles (Rolling Stone, Q, MoJo and Uncut) sales are down while some specialist titles are holding stead. The challenge of the re-launch for newsagents is making a noise in a stale category for such a launch – we’ll have to reconfigure to re-attract people to that space. Of course, the re-launch may product a title with a broader base than at present and that would be welcome.
