So i came up with a basic idea that might be workable. Keep subs as are, but once a magazine has been around for 3-6 months allow for downloads with a subscription and free viewing for those without. I obviously have no idea what FAKKU plans but timed exclusivity for subs might be a decent half way point.
Someone said there might be a purchasable issue option soon.
The more choices they can build up for distribution of content the better.
They could make an option to buy an issue which would be free for subscribers. So a non subscriber could buy single issues if he wants and a normal subscriber would get a reward for his loyalty
Would you only sell the completed issues? or would you also sell it before its completely translated and they would have access as the chapters are released?
On a side note one thing to keep in mind is how well the ideas transfer to coded features, if something gets over complex it could end up running into issues when launched.
Buying the whole issue in advance is really a good idea but you would need a release tune table (like with the book chapters): if you don't have a fixed timeline it could take like forever until you get the complete issue and I don't know if someone would buy an issue and wait three months for it...
So far it seems like they have been able to keep up with releasing the whole magazine in the month it comes out in so I don't think that's too much of an issue.
A calendar of release dates would be nice, even if its only a week ahead, being able to see whats coming would be nice.
