Which magazine?

It's quite difficult to choose a music magazine you like; you've just got lots of them...
So, I want to help you choosing one!

1. "Q"
Site: http://www.qthemusic.com/
Q is a British music magazine. I'm subscribed to Q because of this:

- Monthly
- Very good reviews (about new CD's, vinyl, reissues, concerts...)
- The magazine has a lot of "sections"; Q now, Q charts, Q then, the reviews section (new albums, reissues,      movies, books)
- There are not so many advertisements in the magazine
- Interesting interviews
- Cash for Questions (you send Q a question for an artist, and if the artist answers it, you'll receive 25 pounds)
- Beautifully designed
- Useful information and well written articles
- Costs: 12 pounds for 12 issues (1 pound per issue!)


2. "MOJO"
MOJO is also British, I think everybody knows MOJO magazine.
Site: http://www.mojo4music.com/blog/

- Monthly
- Lots of information about 60's, 70's and 80's music
- Not much information about new artists
- Looks quite old- fashioned
- Costs: 25 pounds for 12 issues



3. OOR
Only available it The Netherlands (Best Dutch music magazine)
Site: http://oor.nl/
- Monthly
- Good reviews
- Lots of new artists
- No articles about old bands
- A lot of information about gigs in The Netherlands
- Costs: 6 euros per issue


4. NME
NME is also a British music magazine.
Site: http://www.nme.com/

- Weekly
- A lot of updates
- Every issue includes two posters
- Well written live reviews
- Not so many articles about older music, only about new artists
- Costs: 60 pounds per year




There are more magazines I read, but these are the best, I guess.

I hope I've been able to help you!
