Question one
This is my first question on my survey, I asked this to find out which magazines
people where most likely to by. I left them a comment box for them to tell me
instead of me naming them. I believe this gives them more freedom to add more
choices. Here I could have mad myself more clear, instead of just writing
magazine I should have wrote music magazines due to get mixed answers
about different types.




 This is the first lot of responses for the first question, 11 people answered this
 questions and the most popular choices were that of NME and Mix mag. these
 are the only two music magazines that where mentioned. Some peoples
 answers involved; Nuts and Men's Fitness which aren't the answers I was
 looking for.
Second half to question one.




  This is the second half of the responses to my first
  question, really there isn't much more to say about this that
  will be different from the above. I will base my magazine
  on the answers I was looking for which was music magazine
Survey Results
   Do you buy magazines             How much would you
          often?                    spend on a magazine?




               These questions are Two and Three.
Questions two and three
 This is the second question I asked on my survey, I asked this question to see
 how often people do actually buy magazines because this would give me
 an idea of whether or not they are actually that interested in magazines
 and make the effort to go out and get them.

 These are the responses to question two, I gave the options of 'yes' and 'no'
 because to me there is no in between. Most people said yes to buying
 magazines often which means that they are willing to make the effort to go
 out and buy a music magazine to read.

 This is question three of my survey and I asked this question to find out
 whether people are willing to pay for music magazines that are expensive or
 whether they don't go for the as good ones because they don't want to pay
 that much towards a music magazine.

 As you can see theses are the responses to question three, I gave them a
 variety of options to choice from making sure there was no overlaps or gaps
 in the pricing. The most popular ones seemed to be £2:01-£4:00 and £4:01-
 £6:00. This is to me means that people are willing to pay a good amount just
 for a music magazine which then suggests that these are people that are
 committed to buying them and that these people are really interested in
 music magazines contents.
Survey Results
 This are the results from some of the questions on my survey. I have
   placed the results in a pie chart to make it easier for people to
                              understand.
   What genre of music are you          Where do you hear new music?
         interested in?




                    These are questions nine and ten.
Questions nine and ten
This is question nine in my survey and I chose this to find out what genres of
music people are into. I thought this would be good because then I can base
my magazine on what genre of music people are interested in the most.

 These are the responses for question nine, from this you can see that people
are most into RnB and Indie. Due this I will be sure to put this across in my
magazine. All of the options where used by one or more people so really
there is a variety of music people like. Two people did skip this questions and it
would have been nice to see what they would have answered.


This is question number ten, I chose to ask this question to find out where
people actually pick up and hear new music. This would be good for my
magazine because if they pick it up from the internet I could out my
magazine on the web and add a few web addresses inside my magazine to
different music sites for my audience.

These are the results for question nine, as you can see most people find new
music on the internet which I'm guessing is youtube. People also find new
music from the radio and their friends, this is going to help me structure my
magazine in the new music pages because now I know where people listen
to their music so i could suggest different types based on where they hear it
from.
