The document discusses the changing landscape of glossy magazines as they shift increasingly online. It notes that 90% of magazine revenue comes from ads, and websites see more traffic, making them more appealing to advertisers. Glossy magazines will need to exist primarily online or have highly interactive websites to engage readers as active audiences and allow peer production through user-generated content. This shift is necessitated by magazines losing $5 billion in revenue and over 50 titles folding in 2009 as people consume media digitally.
