doesitmatter replied to Rose A's discussion French Zines"I was surprised by the small number of french zines that was mentioned so I did some more research and came up with some more. Here you go:

Le Wasted Life,
Kangnave 1 & 2.
You can download the issues at…"
James N. Dawson replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"Again, not to object to on-line zines or anybody enjoying them, but is a "view" a "read"? I go through the Net often and "view" web pages, but I seldom read them. The most I usually do is "skim". I've…"

It was made by Fred who also runs Darbouka Records and it is written in english. Four issues were published. Here's a review I wrote about an issue…"

Milo replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"I do read zines online or download them. In addition, I upload them to QZAP, the Queer Zine Archive Project.
I love having zines in my hand, as a physical object to cherish or give away. I also recognize that zines have content that is important to…"
James N. Dawson replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"Same here. I'm trying more to be open-minded to the electronic/screen reading culture, and I do a little reading on screen, but it's not the focused, absorbed and enjoyed experience that paper reading is. Same with YouTube, which I can…"
Stankzine replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"There is something about reading text on a computer screen that makes me sort of buzz through it quickly and want to multi-task. Having a printed zine that I'm reading on a couch or in bed gets more of my attention. I deliberately sit down to…"
Dan C replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"Since I've already got high speed internet, and since I'm going to have it regardless of whether I read zines online, I consider reading them free. (I think our internet only costs $30/month, and that's split between four of us.)

James N. Dawson replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"I've downloaded a few zines, but for some reason I'm still not sure of, reading a zine on screen is just too much work for me. I've tried printing zines at the library at the library, which has high-speed (which I don't), but…"

Dan C replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"Yes. I like having access to things immediately and for free."
Stankzine replied to doesitmatter's discussion Do you download zines?"Yeah I do. Print zines are great, I'm an instant gratification type of girl."
doesitmatter posted a discussionDo you download zines?
I know that downloading and reading a zine on the screen doesn't come even close to receiving a hard-copy in the mail and reading the real thing but sometimes zines in pdf is the only option. Especially for old out-of-print and/or hard to find zines or for people who can't afford ordering (as many) zines (as they would like), especially with the cost of postage these days.Anyway, do you download and read zines? I certainly do. In fact every weekend I make a list of zines that were uploaded…See More
