It's a sad fact of a changing world -- magazines don't have the power they once did. There is an incredible amount of excellent and focused content available for free on the Internet today, and magazine circulation has been in a steady decline for years because of this fact. And there doesn't seem to be any relief in sight for the decline in hard copy sales of magazines. Some believe tablet computers, specifically the iPad, may be a saviour for the magazine industry, but no matter how they're delivered, magazines will always have a place in popular culture. Along with newspapers, they're a great way to read up of subjects that interest you without having to invest too much time. The magazine has been used by the songwriter in thousands of songs, and for this playlist I've pulled together 15 magazine related tracks. There are certainly a lot more.
