Having now sent out the survey I collected a response from 10 people here are the result and my evaluation.

1. How old are you?
13-17 - 9
18-25 -1
26-30
31-39
40+

2.Gender
Male - 3
female - 7
The majority of the people who took my survey were female and between 13-17, this with mean that the final results will be from the opinions of 13-17 year old females

3.What music do you listen to?
Hip-hop - 2
R&B - 3
Funky - 4
Rock - 3
Indie rock - 2
Pop - 2
Pop rock - 2

All of the above - 5

All of the above got the highest vote which shows that people listen to a mixture of genres however i cant include all these genres in a magazine because from my knowledge of music magazine, music magazine have a particular genre which they then work around so i have decided that i will use the next highest scoring answer which is Funky and i will muisc which are linked with it.

4. Do you buy music magazines?
Yes - 2
No - 0
Sometimes- 8

5. How many times do you buy magazine
Everyday
Every week
Every month - 2
Every year -1
A few times a year- 6
Never - 1

This shows that not many young people buy music magazines regularly however music is a big part of young peoples life so they must be getting there music infomation else where maybe from the Internet from television.

6.What type genre magazines to do read?
Celeb gossip - 3

Gig info -2
New band info-2
existing band info-3
Politics-0
This show that young people are interested in tabloid magazines and information on existing artist but some were interested in gig info and new band, so i have decided to included all of these topics in my magazine as i think all these think are relevant for a music magazine however i won't include politic because i don't think that young people these days to mix politics and music.

7. What genre magazines do you read?
Hip hop -4
Pop -4
Rock -1
This shows that pop and hip-hop were most popular however i think this is the case in my survey because the people who done my survey like these genres but there is a hug range of rock magazine out there so i dont think there is a gap in the market for this kind of music

8. Would you prefer a magazine with one genre or a mixture of genes
Yes -5
No -5

There was an equal number in the people who wanted mixed genre and single genre which gives me the impression that people don't really mind weather the magazine has mixture of genre or not as long as they get there information.
