I hope they have a master plan to make millions from all these magazines.

I know.

I sincerely hope they figure out the code to make it all work.

wonder if the bankruptcy (or heading into bankrupcy) is related to the people that left PWW in the last few years....i.e. they saw the writing on the wall and got out.

I had just received the latest PWW this past week. It was as thin (64 pages)as any advertising supported magazine I've ever received. They are all suffering and it's hard to imagine that someone can see such a business as a good investment in this day and age. I do wish them lick and hope they can turn things around.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

I also noticed that the last two issues were so thin, they almost looked like a weekly insert for the local paper.  I hope they pull it out and find a way to make it. I still prefer to read a paper style magazine with my afternoon coffee. Plus, if I'm making something from that issue, a real paper plan is easier to work with and mark on than trying to look at the internet version.

Will be interesting to see if apple's purchase and subsequent re-packaging and re-branding of texture (the monthly magazine access service), now known as apple news +, will result in more or less revenue for these magazines.
