Online has an impact
• Strong evidence that digital content cannibalizes print sales. On average, a
magazine’s print circulation declines about 3–4% when it offers a
website. DH Simon and V Kadiyali, 2007http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167624507000340
• magazine managers need to consider the age profile of their readers before
launching a website. Launching now is less likely to affect print sales than
before 2001. U Kaiser, 2006http://www.ulrichkaiser.com/printmediapapers/channelcompetition/kaiser_roms.pdf
