Gimme two/three blank dual layer dvds and game-on. Will be happy to pay 150 bucks.

DIGIT is generous in that aspect.... someone a few post earlier did get a whole bunch of blank DVD/ CD .... you might be the next lucky one ;)

like many of u have mentioned b4 the dual layers are a waste of space with those crap albums and trailers,etc. not to mention the lame movies.i would love a simple dvd with all the updates and utilities packed in.the photoshop and other demos can be given in the special 200rs disc,which btw is increasing @ of wwe ppv events!

also i dont feel there is any pc left in india which can run the demo and not the game.so if that guy has spent atleast 5k on a gfx card and spends 125rs on this mag he can obviously get the full game from illegal sources for as little as 150rs.

I noticed one thing which you all might agree.

Most of us look for the product shootout they make but now from past some months they are testing only few products. Like in digital camera shootout there were no cameras form Sony.
And november issue they did the motherboard shootout and they have only six motherboards to test for Intel processors. Strange ??????
The processors have the most exciting Core2duos missing.

You can check it in every issue. Means Brands may be loosing confidence on digit that they are not sending their products for testing to digit.

I m not sure.

saw this month's mag. Totally useless. Even the dvd content is crap. That's it!!. NO more digit magazine for me. If there is anything interesting in future magazine's, I will go to my office library and read it. Don't want to waste 150 bucks. (that's worth 15 days of vada-pav)

I don't understand why people with Internet access would want to read a technology magazine anyway. All the information you'd ever need is there on the net and for free.

By that logic, we don't need newspapers, televisions, movie theaters, music systems, mp3 players etc. Anything that has some content can be downloaded/accessed from the net.

See the sheer pleasure of reading a hardcopy of the magazine is no substitute to the online version or ebook or whatever. But now this high price is pinching the pocket and as rightly said by many of the folks here, a version of the magazine without the media would be welcomed by everyone and we would definitely hit to the newsstand / subscribe the magazine.

I myself have the DVDs/CDs of last 5 months still in that plastic covers, unopened.

I wish Digit gave an option to only give the magazine and no media. I don't usually require those DVDs since I am a Linux user...

By giving out 2 separate editions, what would they gain? It would be a logistics nightmare for them and the sales won't be able to pile up to the kind of profits they do right now.

They would lose many readers if they increased the prices. On the other hand, if they gave an edition of the mag without the DVD, many guys (including me) would buy the mag.

^^ya that super DVD one with 3 movies in 1 DVD...Lolzzzz

On a serious note, i would subscribe again if i get the mag w/o DVD/CD for a lesser price (75 Rs or so)

That would not be fine....125 bucks w/o DVD/CD would be quiet expensive. Below 100 (75 IMO) may be appropriate
