Evaluation question 3

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

My magazine is going to be distributed through the Google play store as it is becoming a hot spot for magazine distribution and requires less work for the consumer to gain access to it. This makes it easier for me to distribute my magazine internationally without having to pay for shipping or printing - as it is a virtual copy. My aim is to start selling issues for 99p on the Play store as it is not to expenses but i'm willing to put it on there free of charge because for my Product, publicity is the priority. more people are likely to read the magazine if it is free, as it is the start, I don't care about profit - I am seeking exposure.


I will be looking to have Bauer Media Group distribute my magazine as they have distributed Q magazines which take risks by promoting experimental artists like lady Gaga, so they are experienced with dealing with magazine production companies that take risks in introducing different things to the public. A magazine like mine is risky to distribute as it barely follows the traditional magazine conventions and there are parts of it that spark controversy - like the scribbled out face in the main image of the magazine.
