Independent Music Magazine Plan B Ceases Publication
Press Gazette reports that Plan B magazine is shutting down. The June issue will be the music magazine's last.
Writing on the Plan B messageboard, publisher Frances Morgan said: "We've come to the decision to close Plan B Magazine after the June issue after a lot of deliberation.
"The current economic climate, combined with the situation of the music industry - to which, whether we like it or not, the fortunes of a commercial monthly music mag are inextricably linked - has made it ever harder for us to continue producing the magazine the way we want to.
"To keep going, we'd need to make cuts in staff, content, size, frequency, print quality - and we're not prepared to do that. We're still above water, we're making some beautiful magazines, and we are quitting while we're ahead."
The magazine's farewell message can be found here on the Plan B website.
