Re: Bad year for magazines.



All

Let us hope that all the readers and contributors of both
publications (TeleMag and T@H) can come together and support
any such replacement TeleMag which might arise from the ashes.

I was a TeleMag subscriber and was told that the last
publication dated January 2007 was distributed in December,
and that a refund cheque would be issued for the remainder
of my subscription.

There is still a need for a printed magazine which includes
detailed articles as well as interesting fault reports.
It's bound to be hard when a new DVD player costs just £9.99
from Richer Sounds, and LCD/Plasma repairs are often beyond
the facilities of smaller service agents. But that's no
excuse for the way TeleMag was put together sometimes over
the last couple of years.

At the beginning of the year I discovered that Technology-at-Home was suspending publication, at which point I enquired about the likelihood of payment for fault reports I'd submitted, I was assured that these payments had been budgeted for and told to send an invoice. A month has passed with no reply so I emailed again - also with no reply, so I did a bit of googling to see if I could find any info on what's going on.

Among the hits was a forum on which it transpires that Television Magazine has also gone tits-up!

So far the messages coming out of Technology-at-Home suggest a modicum of optimism that they may yet return to the market place the Television link redirects to Saint John Patrick Publishers "site under construction" - I wondered if anyone out there had any further news on either publication?
