    illegal magazine sharing

    Interesting article on a new site that has copies of magazines online:
    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080815/...f5sonpb3Ws0NUE

    seems the pulishers are having a little trouble with it since it is based outside the us. It reminds me of all the tube sites with porn.

    I'm sure the magazine publishers will get this shut down so it will be interesting to see how they do it and if the same ideas can be used with tube sites that post all stolen content.

          I dont get it. Companies do all the legwork of creating content. People just blatantly steal it. And no one can do anything about it?

          If this were happening to the mob, they would track down the guy regardless of what country he was and "retire" him.

          Whats the point of trying to create anything original if someone else is going to steal and bank off your hard work?

            You could say that about any form of business, anywhere.

                one minor difference here is that profit for most magazines come from ads, not from $20/year that they charge the customers... the $20/year probably barely covers the printing/distribution costs... it doesn't exactly make it right to distribute them for free online, but comparison to tube sites is a bit off....

                        Ther isn't a point and when no new content is created maybe theives will get it. Yeah the retards loves sites like this until they have to close down because no new magazines are made because sites like this make then unprofitable. Unfotuneatley we will in welfare attitude world where everything is expected to be given to you for free.

                          and ads are sold based on distribution.

                          Distribution is based on the number of magasines sold.

                          If people stop buying the mags cause they can get them for free on the web, the distribution goes down, thus their ad revenue goes down.

                          Same affect as on our industry... everyone loses money.

                                so it's got regular and adult mags and then lets you view the mags online in a flash format... interesting... some massive scanning going on for that though. and no $$ being made since it's a free site? i give it 3 mos

                                  I've been thinking an ipod touch would be a cheaper route in the long run. Since Time, Newsweek, and Entertainment Weekly are all online legally for free anyway. I've had a subscription to Time for over 10 years. EW for 5+. Just don't know if it's browser/speed is better then the super crappy PSP surfing experience.

                                    I think reading a physical magazine is better than being strapped to your PC 24/7

                                      ...but if magazine is free, the distribution actually goes up... the paper version distribution may go down, but overall the distribution probably goes up...so it actually might be good for magazines to get distributed for free online...
