following on from full house - more! magazine has closed



After a period of consultation with the more! team today we have formally closed more! magazine.

I had an email about this a few weeks ago, and I'm sure it's been mentioned on here before.

It's such a shame, I loved More! after reading it (and giggling at position of the month!) in my teenage years. But with the technology and people would rather buy it (cheaper) on a device than have paper in hand.

RIP More!

Cor, More was a staple teenage years as well - though I wasn't a very worldly-wise teen and I think some of it went a bit over my head. I must admit that in recent years I always snuck the chance to read it while waiting at the hairdressers - it still held that kind of illicit appeal!

I know us grown-ups still buy magazines a-plenty (we subscribe to SFX and Empire and read them cover-to-cover, and I regularly buy Chat, Take a Break etc, as occasionally Vogue and Elle, when I'm feeling flush) but I don't think the teens rely on mags nowadays for fashion/relationship/makeup advice or latest news on their favourite bands. Hell, I remember cutting Carter USM's picture and lyrics out of Look-In in 1992 so I could sing along with Only Living Boy in New Cross. I can't imagine many 14 year olds doing that now....
