Print media in a digital age

Interesting reading in this week’s Publishing Futures report from the PPA which shows that print still makes up 78% of revenues at consumer magazines. While it seems this figure is set to drop to 71% in two years’ time, that’s still a sizeable chunk of revenue and good news for both the publishing and print industry. And it’s not that surprising when you think about it. I often sit down at the weekends and have a flick through Grazia to catch up on the latest fashion and beauty trends. It seems I’m not alone – it’s just not the same experience when reading online or on a mobile device, and I’m guessing the same is true whatever your favourite consumer magazine.
