Hey I just wanted to confirm with AMW staff, is the latest subscription offer (free coffee keep cup) only available with a 2 years subscription? I usually only get a 12 month subscription. Also is there any news on a deal for printed and digital subscription combo?

I don't think you will get much of a reply before tomorrow at the earliest, JZ... Due to the niche offices being closed over the Easter break.

I too was waiting for a reply on the digital subscriptions, now that I have a iPad I wouldn't mind looking at what the digital issue looks like, would be great for when I am away....Mick

Mick you can get different samples of mags online, via zinio. You should check out a couple of the free ones avaiable, to see whether you like them or not, that's how I tested it out.

Thanks Ken, but don't you get just a couple of pages, not the whole issue??

I can't recall which ones I tried first but some of them give you nearly a full magazine, knowing your luck it's probably on how to knit sox or something like that, but either way, you get a feel for how it feels over a printed version.

Mick, just download the AMW app (essentially Zinio, but just for AMW) and give it a whirl. Nothing to Lose.

Thanks Alex I will give her. Look in when I am at home this arvo,<br /><br />Cheers Mick

Does it look good and work well on the iPad?

On the iPhone it's just too small, and quality of the images wasn't too great, especially when I zoomed in.

What's like zooming in on the ipad?

Also is Zinio the only way you can subscribe to digital magazines? Are there any other services?

Hi all,

JZ - The current subscription offer to receive a free keep cup, is for both 1 or 2 year subscriptions - be quick it ends on the 30th April!

In regards to the print and digital subscriptions combo, the price for this is $108 for 12 month, however we are doing our final testing with system fulfilment.

I will be appear to approve the above, however until we have this option live on the site you would need to email me directly so I can get our team internally to manually do this.

Thanks Liana

I am up for it, I will send you a email, my only problem is that I already have subscribed to the magazine, I am sure you can work out a way for it to work......

[JZ]

Thanks Liana. I'll put in my order now!

I've used Zinio for about 6 months on iPad, it's very good.

Love being able to carry around back issues to read etc.. when you have 5 minutes to spare.

The app does a pretty good job of displaying the pages, exactly as they are in the print issues.

PS

[BrianB]

Thanks for that input Peter.

Do you know what the file size is for each issue? 10Mb,20Mb...etc

Just curious to know.

[JZ]
