RE: Print-zines, E-zines, size, policies, etc.

It's an interesting point and, believe me, in the 16 years I've been doing this we've been round and round on this topic time after time.

Here's what few people consider though: The New York Times example is always brought up. But how many other examples are there of that?

Furthermore, would any current audio print magazine be able to charge a subscription if they were exclusive to the Web? My belief is that people are paying for the paper, and are happy to do that. In fact, free paper magazines don't seem to go over that well.

Going into the mainstream, I'm pretty sure Men's Journal, Rolling Stone, and Sports Illustrated couldn't sell online subscriptions, at least to their publications portions.
