This isn't really a comment on ST but on the digital magazine experience.
In my haste to see issue 54 (mine arrived today, thanks again Mark) I read a couple of features from the digital version. While you can get an overall feel of the mag and zoom to read the text and pictures it's not the same is it?
When reading a magazine (or a book) you take in the overall as well as the specific. Doing it on a computer means you have to view a specific area of the screen. It's less satisfying, for me anyway.
If youngsters (for want of a better term) grow up with only digital mags and books perhaps they will appreciatte it for what it is. Maybe my problem is having the baggage of traditional print.
What do we all think? Perhaps digital mags will actually need to be a development of what websites are now rather than trying to ape print? Or maybe as I said previously new generations raised solely with digital "print" will accept that format.
Just a thought to pass some of my unemployed spare time.
