Comparison of magazine prices

Cheaply pricedNME £2.40NME is a weekly issue therefore making it cheaper. All of theses cheap magazines use direct address to bring the audience in making them bye it. The colors also work the same way because they want to stand out against the other expensive ones.

Kerrang! £2.20KERRANG uses a cluttered page again to make the audience think they are getting better value for money. Another reason why all these magazines are so cheap is due to the paper quality being so low. On a more expensive magazine high gloss thick paper will be used instead.

Top of the pops £2.99On this magazine it looks like your getting good value for the amount your paying due to the fact that the front cover is full of cover lines and information and tons of pictures. Makin g it look like the magazine will have a lot of content. In reality this magazine probably wont have a lot they just want you to buy it.This is aimed at the younger generation therefor the colors are cheaply and tacky but it will still appeal to them. This is also a weekly issue which also makes it cheaper because there wont be as much quality put in it compared to a monthly issue. This magazine wont have a lot of music content but will have competitions and advertisements to generate revenue that way.
