Magazine Publishing Companies

IPC media

IPC media only publish 2 different music magazines. This could be that they might not be a good distribution company to use because they don’t have much experience with music magazines. Also the genres of the magazines that they produce are quite different from each other. One is about contemporary music and the other is about rock and film both old and new.

Music Magazines – NME and Uncut

Nat Magazine

Nat Magazine is also known as Hearst Magazines UK or National Magazine Company.

I don’t think that I would use this publishing company for my magazine because they don’t have any music magazines that they already distribute so I don’t think that they would have much experience when publishing a music magazine.

Music Magazines = 0

Future PLC

Future PLC distributes about 15 music magazine but they are all to do with guitars and rock music. They have a lot more experience with publishing music magazines so they could be a good choice of my magazine.

Music Magazines - Classic Rock, Classic Rock Prog, Computer Music, Future Music, Guitar Techniques, Guitarist, Metal Hammer, Rhythm, Total Guitar.

Conclusion

I think that I might use IPC Media because they are quite a well known publishing company. Compared to Future PLC who has quite a few music magazines, IPC seems like the best idea. Future PLC may have a few music magazines but they all revolve around guitars and that is something that won’t come in to my magazine very often.
