Ok, guys lets take it this way, Digit tells that the price can't be cut down to previous but u can demand more things.
So what will be the things u want to demand to justify the extra 25/-?

how about looking at it this way :

digit can keep its DL DVD/ whatever and give out just the mag at 125/- .... that way those who want the DVD with all its trailers n stuff can buy the one with DVD for 150 n the others can buy the mag for 125 /-

^^If it is only mag then 125 is too high price to pay. May be 100 or less.
BTW there is magazine named T3 which sells for 100 bux w/o any CD/DVD. It has all the drool stuff that become our object of desire (including the cover page...:D)

It's not about the content. Regular price is 150/- for the mag is totally non-sense. I will just stop buying the mag if the price is set to 150/-

There are many alternates. Think for example, what happens if digit readers move to Chip due to the price. Automatically, it will get more money to spend on articles and research and then it will be as good or even better than digit.

My word is: Don't take it for granted. There is a limit. You want more money. Put more pages and get more ads!!!

But it seems that they are decreasing the number of pages, decreasing the content and increasing the number of ads. :D

And now Rs.150 for a regular issue. No thanks. This forum is the only reason I still have anything to do with Digit and I'm sure many more people would echo my sentiments.

Lets think this way.
If we are pretty active in the forum and we got out own access to Digit forum, we have the stable and always available internet.Needless to put it ,we do download latest of the softwares en^ all whatever fancies us.
Now we really do not need Digit's DVD as if our lives depended on it.
Only as a accompanying freebie we are always game for it.
However there is a definite paradigm shift in the reader of Digit magazine.
And this is towards the non-internet accessible people,people who are not abreast with the latest tech trends.
And for these people 2 DL DVD's make a huge difference.For 150Rs its a sitter deal.
Please take into consideration these people,people who cannot access this poll,what is feels and wherein the value for money actually lies.
For us ofcourse the answer is obvious.Any thing monetary going north will be looked askance.
But for other,this is God-send if nothing less.
 
I havent bought digit since last 4 months. I only buy when good collection of soft,games. I dont care about tech but its no better than the net.

Team digit must seriously think about giving a non-dvd version of its magazine around 60-75 Rs paying extras for outdated stuffs on dvd is too much.

:lol: digit at Rs 50/- .... :rolleyes:

i think 75 for an issue without FASTRACK n DVDs would be the right price tag... but the question is without FASTRACK, what would be there to read in the DIGIT mag ?? we'll probably have to make do with reading about contests and ADVERTISEMENTS :lol:

Reading the magazine is a real pleasure.
A Hardcopy of magazine provides a better reading experience then any online magazine/news/blog/forum/etc.
I want only magazine for 50 Rs.

hey but the fact is DVD production won't cost more then 10Rs Alright. Plus some 10 hrs for Fatguy and Raaboo.
So magazine should be priced 140, if they exclude the DVDs.

Most, if not all of the forum members have good net connections, and they don't give a damn to the DVDs. Those without a net connection would really appreciate the 2 DVDs.
The best way would be to create two subscription offers, 1 type without the DVDs at a lower cost, and the other type with the DVDs and all.

Team Digit has grown some cheesy fat around their heads and taking readers for granted.
Shame on them.
