Sales + History
? In the past decade the music industry has been loosing many millions in
sales due to piracy.
? This is because of the advances in technology and computing. ? As the sales are depleting so are the companies that own them ? Over the past 20 years the Grunge and eventually Emo scene has
brought a larger female audience into this music scene
? Kerrang tend to stick to a particular scene, unlike Q who act like a
music ‘bible’ that cover a very broad range of genres.
? The battle for sales with Metal Hammer separated the audience in the
90’s, overall this brought more attention to the two magazines.

Magazine Content
? ?
Insert picture of first issue or earliest issue and most recent issue available. How has the magazine changed in style and content? = The once niche market has blown up in the past 30+ years. There are many bands and fans that cerate their own styles. Originally the magazine was associated with pure metal or the new wave with bands like; Iron Maiden and Metallica, as more groups have joined the band wagon the magazine has to broaden to please the not so niche audience. The magazine just answers to the peoples requests. So the magazine has modernized with time, it has kept relatively faithful to it’s dedicated audience. Why do you think that is? = I think as the audience changes the magazine does accordingly. The consumers know best. That’s the way big businesses are run.
?
?
Which changes are due to changing audiences? = Things like the bands on the front, if the majority don’t like the band they will not be as successful. More content based articles (the main article for example) may be requests by many fans. The audience also control sales so anything sales based must be compatible with the audience.
?
Which changes are due to new technology? The logo and main title are definitely a decision based on new technologies. You can see from the two pictures the more technologically advanced we are the more ‘modern’ our products look. More graphics are used as a result of the short attention span our youth has developed.
