Vinyl lovers, I need your help! - Blu-ray Forum

richteer · 10-02-2009, 01:41 AM

As some of you know, I was downsized from my job last November. As a life-long vinyl lover, I've been thinking about launching my own freely downloadable, vinyl-centric magazine, and wanted to get an idea of its viability. To that end, I've put together a short confidential survey and I'd really appreciate it if some of you would take a couple of minutes to fill it out for me. The survey can be found at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?s...ZS5l0YFg_3d_3d.

Many thanks in advance!

As someone with only 2 records, and no TT, I hope I didn't skew your results. I voted because I am interested though, so that qualifies me!

I'm glad you are getting more ground work laid for this. Can't wait for the first issue!

Johnny Vinyl · 10-02-2009, 07:06 AM

Survey completed/submitted!

I'm really looking forward to a potential first issue, and I hope you can get this off the ground. You know you already have lots of support from us here, and we'll be spreading the news to others.

Go Vinylphile! Can I order a t-shirt yet?

You have my full support

FreddieFerric · 10-02-2009, 12:29 PM

Done Rich.

and to others...it's only a 5 question long survey. You can take it in like less than 5 minutes. Please answer honestly.

joe1515 · 10-02-2009, 12:34 PM

Done. Good Luck.

Joe

richteer · 10-02-2009, 02:14 PM

Wow, thanks for the overwhelming support, guys!

No T shirts yet, John, but I plan to make some available eventually.

naturephoto1 · 10-02-2009, 02:16 PM

Survey done. I'm very interested in reading this!

btf1980 · 10-03-2009, 06:29 PM

Did the survey yesterday.

A couple of weeks ago I posted about a survey for a freely-downloadable, vinyl-centric audio magazine. The survey has now closed, and I want to thank everyone who participated in it.

A few people have been curious to know the results, so here's a very brief summary. 143 people took the survey, and about 91% of the respondents stated that they would be interested in such a magazine. 86% of the respondents thought that my proposed bi-monthly publication schedule was about right.

The majority of respondents thought that reviews of turntables, tonearms, cartridges, phono stages, and records were very important; reviews of other audio gear (including, much to my surprise, digital sources) were deemed to be somewhat important.

My thanks again to everyone who responded to my survey! Assuming the stars align well, I'm going to make a go of it. I'll make an announcement when there's anything substantial to say; stay tuned!

Thanks.
