The Future of Music Magazines:
Music magazines don't have much future, With new technology being introduced such as phone apps people are able to retrieve the same information for free or at a small expence. They do not really have much more of a future and should put their sales into applications with pay monthly subscriptions. However in some cases people prefer the 'hard copy' and are usually a older genre who don't have a smart phone.

What Audience do the Music Magazines relate to ?
Most Music Magazines dedicate themselves around Rock and R&B like NME. The target audience NME are aimed at is the younger generation of adults. through looking at the cover we see allot of young bands, The cover also shows a lot about the content of the magazine and what the magazine will be about. By showing more well known younger artists on the front cover, the larger the audience it will attract to the product.
Some good use of hyperlinks which I like but there is scope gfor a much broader use of images than you have currently used. A range of the types of music magazines, particularly the lesser known ones such as Melody Maker would significantly enhance your work.
