In my media as class we have been looking at and analysing the content in two specific music magazine. My choice of magazine were 'NME' and 'Top Of The Pops', one of which is a pop magazine and the other a Indie/Rock, i have been evaluating the content in both magazines and tabulating my results into visual graphs.

In total, NME had 25 pages on festures out of 200.

In total, NME featured eight T.V and Radio adverts and six and a half pages of small ads i.e concert dates.

These show me that advertisements are very effective in magazine's, but also that the bigger the magazine, the greater the amount of adverts to both recieve funding for the magazine's producers as well as filling th pages within the publication
