and David Hepworth who were dismayed by the music press
of the time, which they felt was ignoring a generation of older
music buyers who were buying CDs- which was then a new
technology.

called “Cue” but the name was changed so it wouldn’t be
mistaken for a snooker magazine- also, a single letter title
would be more prominent on newsstands.

different from the other
content pages because those
pages usually have both text
and mages equally divided
or sometimes, it is the text
that takes over the images. In
this content page, however,
the masthead has been
written the same way as the
cover page, images of icons
have been posted instead of
their descriptions and names.
Only a small portion has
been specified for the article
titles and their description
along with the page number.
A web address has also been
mentioned.
