Giant Leap to FREE Mags!
Welcome to the second FREE edition of Big Carp accompanied by the 29th FREE copy of Free Line! Last month we announced that after 30 years producing Big Carp in paper and digital forms, we had taken the giant leap of going solely digital and FREE! Why? because its 2020 and like it or not we find ourselves in a world filled with social media, YouTube and digital publications and we need to move with the times. Paper and print will be a thing of the past. It’s just not economically viable. I was chatting to Dave Lane the other day, we both have boys and he was saying that he reckoned it was at least 10 years since his boys picked up a book to read, yes, he cannot get them off their phones and iPads. And I had to admit my three were the same, especially my 12-year-old. It causes more rows in our house than anything. As soon as he wakes, he’s on his device and would look at it all day if I let him. Obviously, a few of our old readers would prefer paper, I like paper too, but once you get used to the hi-tech ‘Flip Book’ page turner we use, it’s honestly not that different, especially if you read it on your computer at home or at work, full size.
