Are music magazines doomed?

YES:
Less and less people are buying print magazines due to the popularity in social media and the internet being such an important factor in our lives. We can now look at photo-shoots,reviews and articles online meaning no point in actually buying a printed magazine when we can look at similar information online for free. Adding to that magazines are much easier to find online then finding shops that stock the magazine you're interested in.
NO:
Although magazines may not be as doomed as we thought. 87% of the population actually do buy printed magazines and don't read the magazine online.Magazine create peoples identity and relate to what they are interested in, so by buying their certain magazine it can give them a certain pleasure of actually owning the magazine.So many things have been predicted to be doomed for example cinema when people could own their own TV yet the cinema is still popular in most towns. So there is still hope for magazines.
