DIGIT @ 80-90 Rs with TWO DVD`S ..Will ya Buy then??

Well i dont look at the dvd. I usally look at magazine. From magazine wise. It is a very poor quality. It mostly look like copy and paste.

Exactly, even i have stopped looking much at DVD or Cd's for that. With the faster internet connection contents on DVD doesnt matter much.Old movies dont have much fun when we get fairly new on the torrents.
Anyway the essential thing is hows the magazine.I wil buy Digit at the same cost provided they pump up more pages on the magazine.
This is the Gadget Era ,....isnt it ? Then i think Digit should Cram as as new gadgets and review them.
There should be more context revelant advt. than there presently it.
Another most important thing i noticed lately is lack of good writers and copy-desk editors on Digit.
The articles rather than going for the latest and best in the industry should cover things more in the Indian perspective and those having more wider mass followings.

i wud prefer a Digit mag only option @30-40 buks . evrything else i get off the net.

The mag should be of high quality content. By the name of COST they have kept increasing ad pages in it. Instead of good reviews they have started so many small things which are either useless or of no use like GENDER BENDER.
What use it has?

The CD/DVD are useless. I think Digit should have an option where people can choose not to buy them and only the mag itself for around 50 rupees. (Btw 50 rupees is more than enough for the mag itself. Many mags i buy like AutoCar India (Rs.60) and AV MAX (Rs.50) provide much better content with higher quality paper at a lower price and don't stuff useless stuff down my throat.) I like the mag but the price is too much. I can't believe i'm spending all that over what i don't need/want.

that gender bender is ok, but what i want is more content n less of ads.

its abt an year since i bought a digit.. But cant blame them alone.. Nowadays all mags have crappy content..

"""ui All Have Said Wht I Had I Mind..... Way To Tech Boys!!!!!!!"""

i think DIGIT have panicked seeing even techies like us have stopped buying...
thats y they have included the "Survey Form" in the front page !!! Even that too SCUKED!!!

magazine is increased page because of AD.....

The following for 100 bucks

1. One 150 Page magazine with around 120 pages in articles
2. One Dual Layer DVD
3. One Fast Track

If u have internet then there is absolutely no reason to buy digit.There's no way digit can cope up with the information on the.This is a fact and i'm not saying this to hurt digit.

Ya i last purchased Digit in February 06.....

^^I got net this month and I am not buying it.
Digit is one of the best mag around but there are lack of good articles which discourage us reader to buy that mag..
There are too much ads,

i will be true and direct...

i buy the CHIP mag (for its CONTENTS... content of the disc quality has gone down from the time it started) and my friend buys DIGIT mag (for its DISC CONTENTS... the mag content was never so good). And then we use transferable media...

I have stopped buying both n joined both the forums.

On da internet ur the guru n u can get wateva u want.

U just gotta know GOOGLING.

Peace~~~!

I would love to see online magazine subscription like the one pcquest has. pay some 300 per year and read the magazine online. No printed copies

With my broadband connection, I just don't need the content in DVD/CD.

Well, i only pay Rs 120 for 15 Magazines in a Month. There is a service in my city, select any 15 magazines and they will deliver it on alternate days and take the old one away.

Two days is enough for me to read Digit, Chip, PCQuest etc I also get CD's DVD with them but i dont use them....

Hmm.. I read the MAGs at Library ... and about DVDs, well There is 2mbps so no need to waste money .. he he...

Ya the price is high considering the repeated contents in cd's,old movies,small useless games.Also the Mag is also a little boring & of couse slim.And one more :Less linux software.I think only the fasttrack is some sving grace.
Will surely buy @ 80-90 if Mag+Fasttrack+two dvd's is given.

Will they hear wht we are saying here in this forum???

do they care really???

and also how many have stopped buying the mag and when was ur last purchase???

^jan 07

me nov 06

Last purchase Mar 07.

should i start i poll in the front page???

What I think is that they should start giving more articles focusing on the basics of tech. Like we have an excellent thread right now where the difference between the PC and mac is explained. Similarly digit has given some articles like DDR and DDR2 ram C2D and AMD processor.... but the number should be increased....

digit must take necessary action to be different in terms of news, reviews and graphics... its globalisation age... and ppl dont like old news which r already there on websites.... now many foreign pc magazines r available on site... & can be downloadable... Even now some forums started magazines for their site... most of tech related ppl read digit magazine & they know latest news by sites... so it is better to provide videos, tutorials, ebooks related to softs, hardware & gadgets etc. now most of ppl know where to get softs, trailers & etc. things... so pls stop to provide such crap things & news...

Last purchase: may 2007

We need video reviews like gamespot. Remove all the stuff thats available in the net. Get rid of the CD. They can also include video tutorials. Whats wrong with the testing? No N73 or N70 on mobile phone test and no Creative T6060 or T6100 for speaker test ...
But I still find a computer magazine is necessary despite the 2mbps because most of the content on the internet is not from the point of view of an indian. The prices , the availability etc of gadgets and technologies and the purchasing power parity are very different in India from the rest of the world.
