It will take time for every reader to adapt to computer screen. I am personally reading a lot online, but I do buy printed magazines! I spend all day in front of the computer and it is actually nice to be able to read something off the screen at your own time on the sofa. Reading news online is great, but it is not always convenient to read a lengthy article. Going digital is a good point, but there must be a happy balance.

Again. I spent 90 of my time on the site waiting for content to download wondering why on earth they had bothered doing it this way. This is the kind of idea that sells to people who are print based who want to go online but without doing any additional work (or indeed understanding the web or their audience). The novelty factor in this is a negative point, not positive. If the content is good enough it will 'survive' html... Ah, the old page turning flash style magazine idea. Again.
